The Malta-flagged LNG carrier Disha, carrying 62,370 metric tonnes from Qatar's Ras Laffan terminal, docked at Gujarat's Dahej Port early Friday. Its journey followed a U.S.-Iran peace framework announced June 14, which reopened the Strait of Hormuz—key for one-fifth of global oil and LNG—after closures due to strikes and threats since late February. For India, a major LNG importer, the arrival eases domestic gas shortages amid prior disruptions, with Petronet LNG expecting quick unloading. Shippers stay cautious as traffic remains low, but oil prices have fallen below $81 per barrel on reopening hopes.

After waiting over three months west of the strait, the Disha tanker slipped through safely on June 15—one of the first to do so since the U.S.-Iran deal.
