**Title: Successful Transit of Two LPG Tankers Through the Strait of Hormuz to India** In a significant development for India’s energy sector, two LPG tankers have successfully navigated the strategic Strait of Hormuz, culminating their journeys in Indian waters. The first vessel, the *Shivalik*, transported more than 40,000 metric tonnes of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and made its way into the open sea on March 14, 2026. Under the vigilant escort of the Indian Navy, the *Shivalik* arrived at Mundra Port on March 16, marking a pivotal moment for the country's energy resources. Around the same time, the *Nanda Devi* embarked on its own transit through the strait, making its passage at approximately 9:30 a.m. IST. This tanker, too, is part of the Shipping Corporation of India fleet and was anticipated to dock at Mumbai Port later that same day. The *Nanda Devi* successfully reached Vadinar in Jamnagar on March 16 at 2:30 a.m. and subsequently anchored offshore for a vital ship-to-ship transfer of approximately 46,500 metric tonnes of LPG to the tanker *BW Birch*. This operation was conducted under the oversight of the Deendayal Port Authority, ensuring the safe and efficient transfer of cargo. The arrival of both vessels is seen as a crucial boost to India's energy supply chain, particularly amidst ongoing fluctuations in global markets. With the *Shivalik* delivering an impressive 46,000 metric tonnes of LPG aimed at meeting the demands of the Gujarat and Karnataka markets, these successful transits herald a significant addition to India's energy reserves during challenging times.
