India is increasingly sourcing natural gas from the United States, overtaking Gulf suppliers amid disruptions tied to the Iran-related conflict. Both outlets report that U.S. exports to India have risen sharply, with volumes growing steadily and reaching levels that make the United States India’s leading gas supplier. CNBC attributes the shift largely to the growth of American gas shipments to India and notes it aligns with Washington’s broader effort to expand U.S. energy sales to South Asia. Quartz highlights the scale of the change, saying U.S. gas exports to India have increased eightfold compared with pre-war levels. Quartz links the broader market rebalancing to continued constraints on shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, which remains choked as tensions persist. Together, the reports describe a supply chain reroute: reduced availability and higher risk around Gulf routes make U.S. gas a more accessible alternative for India. While the sources focus on the drivers—U.S. export growth and Gulf traffic disruption—they converge on the core outcome that the U.S. has become India’s top gas supplier.
