QatarEnergy has declared force majeure on long-term LNG supply contracts with customers in South Korea, China, Italy, and Belgium, following missile damage to its Ras Laffan facilities last week amid the U.S.-Israeli war against Iran. The attacks, detailed in prior reporting, impacted 17% of Qatar's LNG exports, with repairs expected to take three to five years.
Após os ataques iranianos ao hub de GNL de Ras Laffan, no Catar, os preços globais do gás natural subiram, embora a menor dependência da Europa em relação aos suprimentos do Catar limite o impacto. Os preços no atacado estão elevados, mas permanecem bem abaixo dos picos da crise da Ucrânia de 2022, em meio a níveis de armazenamento abaixo da média antes do inverno.

Following Iran's attack on Qatar's Ras Laffan LNG facilities, QatarEnergy CEO Saad al-Kaabi warned of declaring force majeure on long-term contracts, including those with South Korea's KOGAS, as repairs to damaged production trains could take three to five years, sidelining 17% of export capacity. South Korean officials downplayed supply risks due to alternatives.
