QatarEnergy has halved its scheduled deliveries of liquefied natural gas to Bangladesh for this year, Petrobangla’s acting chairman said, as Iran war fallout continues to curb shipments of the super-chilled fuel through the Strait of Hormuz, Reuters reports.

“All these problems stem from the war,” Abdul Mannan told Reuters, adding that Bangladesh’s state-owned energy company was exploring alternative LNG sourcing including more spot-market purchases and government-to-government deals with other suppliers.
