GAIL (India) Limited has disclosed that its long-term LNG supplier Petronet LNG Limited has invoked force majeure, halting contracted LNG supplies to GAIL from 4 March 2026 due to navigation restrictions in the Strait of Hormuz and a reported shutdown at Qatar’s Ras Laffan liquefaction facilities, alongside a related force majeure communication from QatarEnergy. As a result, GAIL is evaluating potential supply curtailments for its downstream customers while stressing that other LNG supply sources remain unaffected so far, and the company notes that the financial and operational impact of this disruption is currently unquantifiable but is being closely monitored for further updates to the market.
