Qatari LNG tanker heads to Strait of Hormuz in first transit since Iran war began

Qatari LNG tanker heads to Strait of Hormuz in first transit since Iran war began A Qatari liquefied natural gas tanker is approaching the Strait of Hormuz, potentially becoming the first of its kind to pass through the waterway since the war on Iran began. Shipping data from LSEG shows the Al Kharaitiyat departed Ras Laffan and is sailing towards the strait en route to Port Qasim in Pakistan. If it completes the journey, it would mark the first known transit by a Qatari LNG tanker through the Strait of Hormuz since the start of the US-Israeli war on Iran.
