How this development reaches the affected companies
| Asset | Exposure and channel | Direction | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| LNG1! | Higher observed LNG transit volumes through Hormuz reduce immediate scarcity concerns relative to the war-period trough. | Down1-5d | S&P Global Energy counted 19 September cargoes, up from 15 in June. |
| QG | Qatar’s LNG export flows remain exposed to the security and operating conditions of Hormuz, but the shipment increase does not determine the equity-price direction. | Watch1-4w | Thirteen of the 19 September cargoes were from Qatar and traveled through the chokepoint. |
| UAE | UAE LNG shipments through Hormuz remain exposed to renewed attacks or routing constraints, with the observed increase offsetting but not eliminating that risk. | Watch1-4w | Six September cargoes from the UAE used the waterway according to S&P Global Energy data. |
