UAE’s ADNOC Gas adjusts LNG output in response to shipping disruption


The U.S.-Israeli war on Iran escalated sharply over the ​weekend after President Donald Trump threatened to “obliterate” Iran’s power ​plants in 48 hours unless Tehran fully reopens the ⁠waterway. In response, Iranian officials said if struck, they ​would completely close the strait and retaliate by destroying energy and ​desalination infrastructure across the region.

ADNOC Gas “is actively collaborating with customers and partners on a transaction-by-transaction basis to fulfill commitments wherever possible,” the company said ​in a stock-exchange disclosure.

It did not provide further details on ​output. The company’s Das Island facility, with LNG capacity of 6 million ‌metric ⁠tons a year, sits inside the Gulf, so tankers must transit the Strait of Hormuz to reach it.

“Operations are continuing safely across ADNOC Gas plc’s asset base,” ADNOC Gas said. “Following debris falling ​near certain facilities, ​inspections confirmed ⁠no injuries and no impact to core processing integrity.”

The Habshan gas processing complex, one of the world’s ​largest, with a capacity of 6.1 billion standard ​cubic ⁠feet per day, is now operational after it was shut on March 19.

That suspension followed two incidents of fallen debris after the successful ⁠interception of ​a missile.

Iran launched a wave of ​attacks on Gulf energy facilities after Israel attacked South Pars, Iran’s main gas ​field, on March 18.
