YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A tanker carrying liquefied natural gas from Qatar appears to have transited the Strait of Hormuz, marking the country’s first export out of the region since the Iran war began. Bloomberg Asia Energy Lead Stephen Stapczynski joins David Gura and Christina Ruffini on Bloomberg This Weekend to discuss.

The Al Kharaitiyat, which loaded at the Ras Laffan export plant earlier this month, exited the strait and is in the Gulf of Oman, ship-tracking data compiled by Bloomberg shows. The vessel lists Pakistan as its next destination, according to the data.

The ship appears to have navigated the Tehran-approved northern route that hugs the Iranian coast through the strait, the data showed.
