Qatar, the second-largest exporter of liquefied natural gas in the world, is testing unconventional strategies to boost its exports through the Strait of Hormuz, following disruptions to shipment flows caused by the conflict with Iran and the increased risks of relying on a single maritime passage. These proposals include reusing aging tankers to cross the strait, transferring shipments between ships at sea, leasing additional vessels, expanding gas trading activities, and leveraging its international investments, especially the "Golden Pass" project in the United States. The aim of these measures is to increase the flexibility of Qatar's exports, reduce transportation costs, and counteract navigational disruptions, while maintaining its market share and strengthening its global position in the gas market, despite rising shipping and insurance costs.
