Tanker Carrying Qatari LNG Struck While Transiting Hormuz

Tanker Carrying Qatari LNG Struck While Transiting Hormuz A liquefied natural gas tanker carrying a shipment from Qatar was struck by a projectile while transiting the Strait of Hormuz, according to security intelligence firms and ship tracking data, threatening to further disrupt deliveries of the super-chilled fuel through the key waterway. Security consultancies Vanguard Tech and Marisks identified the ship as the Gaslog Shanghai LNG tanker. The UK Maritime Trade Operations had alerted that a vessel was struck in the strait off the Omani coast overnight, without identifying it. There was no environmental impact so far, the UKMTO said.
