Strait of Hormuz closure poses risk to over 35% of India’s crude and 42% LNG imports
India imported 23.4 million metric tonnes (~5.5 mb/d) of crude in May 2025. Of this, more than 2 mb/d—over 35 per cent —comes through the Strait. Additionally, India sources about 42 per cent (11.4 mmt) of its LNG from Qatar, whose exports are entirely reliant on the passage.
