NEW YORK – According to a report by Bloomberg, shipping-tracking data showed global LNG shipments dropped to around 33 million tonnes last month, marking the lowest monthly export level since May 2024.
The decline was partly attributed to a halt in LNG production in Qatar, the world’s second-largest exporter of the fuel. However, the overall drop remained relatively limited, with April shipments down about 7 percent compared to the same period last year.
Increased output from other major producers, including the United States and Canada, helped offset some of the supply shortfall.
