LNG Prices Rise by a Third Due to Strait of Hormuz Closure, Impacting Energy Sector
LNG prices have increased by a third since the war began, primarily due to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, which disrupts 20% of global LNG supplies. U.S. LNG exporters like Venture Global and Cheniere Energy are helping fill the supply gap, while natural gas pipeline companies such as Kinder Morgan are also benefiting. The war has had a significant impact on both oil and LNG markets.
