Qatari LNG Carrier Passes Through Strait of Hormuz for the First Time in Approximately 70 Days

On May 10, the maritime traffic website updated shipping tracking information indicating that a Qatari liquefied natural gas (LNG) carrier successfully passed through the Strait of Hormuz and has entered the Gulf of Oman, heading towards Pakistan. This is the first Qatari LNG carrier to pass through the Strait of Hormuz since the United States and Israel launched military operations against Iran approximately 70 days ago. Tracking data shows that the vessel utilized a new shipping route recently opened by Iran. The LNG carrier transmitted its location via the Automatic Identification System on May 9, indicating its entry into the Strait of Hormuz, after which it ceased sending location signals for an extended period. The updated shipping tracking information on May 10 confirmed that the vessel has successfully passed through the strait and entered the Gulf of Oman.
