India's LPG imports from US to cross 1 million tonnes amid Middle East disruption
India's imports of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) from the United States are set to cross 1 million metric tonnes in June for the first time, as disruptions in the Middle East force a shift in sourcing. The move comes after supplies through the Strait of Hormuz were disrupted, leading to a sharp drop in April imports and a subsequent recovery via US cargoes. Indian refiners bought record volumes despite higher premiums, while the government implemented measures to boost domestic production and reduce consumption.
