Qatar is assembling a group of empty LNG (liquefied natural gas) carriers in the Persian Gulf, suggesting that one of the world's major LNG exporters may be preparing to increase exports through the Strait of Hormuz. According to analysis from foreign media based on satellite images and ship-tracking data, at least twelve empty LNG carriers owned or leased by QatarEnergy are currently waiting in waters near Qatar. These vessels have a combined loading capacity of about 1.1 million tons of LNG, which is approximately 2% of the total global LNG shipping fleet capacity. However, even if these ships are fully loaded, it does not guarantee that they will eventually pass through the Strait of Hormuz, especially as attacks on vessels by Iran have intensified recently.
