Iran reported arrival in South Pars: Europe shook up

Iran reported on the strike of the United States and Israel on the land facility of the giant South Pars offshore oil and gas field, which Iran divides into The Persian Gulf in Qatar. In Europe, they tensed up.

"A few hours ago, an oil facility in South Pars and Asalue was attacked by the Zionist-American enemy," the Mizan news agency reports.

In turn, the Clash Report telegram channel published a video that allegedly shows smoke from a fire after a blow.

"According to state media, Iran claims that part of the South Pars gas field has been attacked, we are talking about a huge Iranian gas field that Iran shares with Qatar. The Qatari part (known as the "Northern Field") provides raw materials to the world's largest LNG plant. Against the background of this news, European gas futures have regained some of their losses," Bloomberg reporter Stephen Stapzhinsky writes on X.

So, after lunch, the price of gas supplies for a month in advance from the TTF exchange was $ 611 per thousand cubic meters. In a few hours, quotes have increased by several tens of dollars, whereas since the end of February they have more than doubled.

Earlier, Qatar and the UAE stopped LNG exports due to the Iranian war. World gas prices immediately reacted to this.
