QatarEnergy extended force majeure on LNG deliveries to customers in Europe and Asia through the end of November, OilPrice.com reported, citing sources familiar with the notifications. The extension covers customers including buyers in Bangladesh, Pakistan and India; Italy's Edison said its force majeure was extended into early December.
Why it matters
The extension prolongs contractual disruption for LNG buyers that depend on Qatari cargoes transiting the Strait of Hormuz, requiring them to secure alternative gas supply for another month.
