The consulting agency S&P Global said that the Iran conflict and supply disruptions to the global energy market are stimulating the market to increase investment in new liquefied natural gas export facilities in the US. Daniel Yergin, vice chairman of S&P Global, said that the blockage of shipping in the Strait of Hormuz highlights the importance of geographical diversification in the supply chain, and this investment trend will continue in the next 12 months. “U.S. liquefied natural gas is currently very popular,” Yelkin said. “Countries will pay more attention to energy security and actively seek alternative supply channels for major shipping routes such as straits.” He added, “Buyers will prefer US liquefied natural gas to diversify supply.” Since the outbreak of the Iran conflict, the United States, the world's largest exporter of liquefied natural gas, has filled part of the Middle East supply gap and increased gas transmission to Europe and Asia.
