The increase in power petrol price comes as the Strait of Hormuz, the key waterway which carries 20 per cent of world's oil and liquefied natural gas requirements, remains virtually closed off because of Iran's retaliatory strikes to the February 28 US-Israeli attack that has killed hundreds so far, including Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
The drone and missile exchange that has rattled the entire Gulf region saw a sharp escalation this week after Israel targeted a key gas field in Iran and the latter retaliated by hitting world's largest LNG facility in Qatar - which is on the same on the other end of the same gas field.
The gas field under the Gulf is the world's largest and is shared by Iran and Qatar. It is called South Pars on the Iranian side and North Field or North Dome on the Qatari side. Iran relies on the field to meet its domestic energy requirements, while Qatar uses it for global LNG exports. Read full HT report on the impact of the gas field here.
Iran strikes on Ras Laffan caused extensive damage, temporarily shutting down operations. Qatar's LNG exports account for roughly a fifth of the world's global supply.
