A second Qatari LNG tanker is transiting the Strait of Hormuz days after the first such cargo crossed under an arrangement involving Iran and Pakistan, highlighting how cargoes are crossing the waterway on a case-by-case basis amid ongoing conflict risks, Reuters notes.
The vessel, Mihzem, with capacity of 174,000 cubic metres, departed Ras Laffan and is heading northeast toward Karachi’s Port Qasim, where it is expected to arrive on May 12, according to LSEG shipping data.
This would be the second successful passage through Hormuz for a Qatari LNG tanker since the start of the Iran war.
