In October, 31 containers with rough natural gas have passed through the Strait of Hormuz, the highest since February 2026, Reuters reported. According to the agency, the crossing volume increased compared to September, with 23 ships crossed the layer. The main movement was delivered by the deliveries of Qatar (23 containers) and the UAE (eight vessels). Analysts at S&P Global Energy indicate that exports from the UAE have already returned to prewar levels, and the Qatari transition has recovered more than 30% of previous levels.
