The ongoing conflict in West Asia and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz have disrupted India's liquefied natural gas (LNG) supplies from key exporters Qatar and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). As a result, India has diversified its import sources, turning to Oman, Nigeria, and the United States. In April, India's LNG imports rebounded to 1.95 million tonnes, up from 1.67 million tonnes in March, although year-on-year imports were down 9.3% from 2.15 million tonnes in April 2025. Oman emerged as the largest supplier, contributing 30-31% of total imports, while imports from Qatar and the UAE plummeted to 0.06 million tonnes and 0.13 million tonnes, respectively, during March and April. The Indian government responded to the supply disruption by prioritizing gas allocation for critical sectors like fertilisers, raising allocations to 98% to ensure uninterrupted urea production ahead of the kharif season. Despite the challenges, global LNG exports have not faced as severe a decline as initially feared, with alternative suppliers helping to stabilize the market.
