How this development reaches the affected companies
| Asset | Exposure and channel | Direction | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| QG1! | Higher observed Qatari LNG flows reduce the immediate scarcity premium in regional gas supply. | Down1-5d | S&P Global Energy counted 13 Qatari LNG cargoes exiting Hormuz in September, contributing to the highest monthly total since the war began. |
| TTE | Improved availability of Gulf LNG can ease near-term global gas tightness and reduce exposure to extreme LNG pricing. | Down1-4w | Total LNG cargoes through Hormuz rose to 19 in September despite security concerns. |
| LNG | The increase in cargoes supports supply normalization, but the route remains exposed to military and diplomatic developments. | Watch1-4w | Reuters reported both the September traffic increase and persistent security worries and uncertainty. |
