Pakistan LNG Seeks Emergency Cargo After Weekend Hormuz Flare-Up

Pakistan’s state LNG importer is urgently seeking to procure an LNG cargo for delivery this week, with offers due on June 29, as traffic through the Strait of Hormuz remains volatile amid persistent threats to tankers and reignited U.S.-Iran tensions.

China conducts ground test of hypersonic ramjet that can change shape in flight

At a test facility in China, a hypersonic engine that reshapes its internal airflow channel – much like a throat tightening and relaxing – has operated continuously from a relatively modest Mach 1.8 (nearly twice the speed of sound) all the way to Mach 6 without failing. And the material that kept superheated gases from escaping? Essentially the same black mineral found inside a pencil: graphite. For years, engines of this type could not ignite until the aircraft had already reached Mach 4 –...

Strait of Hormuz Tanker Traffic Slows After Fresh U.S.-Iran Strikes

Tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has eased since late last week as vessel owners and operators remain cautious amid the renewed hostilities between Iran and the United States this weekend. On Friday and Saturday, the US Central Command (CENTCOM) forces conducted strikes against multiple targets in Iran, in response to attacks on two vessels near the Strait of Hormuz. The Thursday attack on the container ship Ever Lovely prompted some shipowners to pull back and wait for additional inf

Oil Prices Climb as U.S.-Iran Flare-Up Shakes Market Complacency

Oil prices were climbing early on Monday morning after a fresh escalation between the U.S. and Iran over the weekend. The price rise was relatively delayed, as markets continue to price in a potential peace deal while discounting more bullish geopolitical catalysts. A growing number of analysts have been arguing that markets are being too optimistic about a quick return of Hormuz traffic and too complacent about the continued drawdown in global inventories to multi-decade lows. At the time of wr

China’s LNG Buying Rebounds as Summer Power Demand Surges

China’s imports of liquefied natural gas this month are likely to be unchanged on last year’s, Kpler has forecast, seeing arrivals of a total of 5.29 million tons, as cited by Bloomberg.

The May figure was a reversal of import trends from the previous few months, which booked a series of declines amid crimped supply from the Mi
