Geopolitical Tensions Disrupt LPG, Natural Gas Supply to India, Impacting Aluminum Production
[SMM Aluminum Express News] Geopolitical tensions in West Asia have disrupted energy flows through the Strait of Hormuz, tightening LPG and natural gas supply to India. With gas diverted to households, according to the Aluminium Extrusion Manufacturers Association of India industrial supply has been cut by 50–80%, severely impacting energy-intensive aluminum extrusion. Around 25 plants have been shut down while ~200 operate at reduced rates, dragging monthly output from ~70,000 mt to ~45,000 mt. The supply-driven disruption is tightening downstream availability and supporting aluminum product premiums.

[SMM Daily Review of Aluminum Alloy] The secondary aluminum alloy ADC12 market continued to weaken today, with mainstream enterprises generally cutting offers by 200–400 yuan/mt. The weaker prices were mainly dragged down by larger declines in aluminum prices and futures, with the cost center moving lower in tandem. In addition, some enterprises had shown relatively strong bullish sentiment earlier and lagged in the pace of price adjustments, leading to a catch-up decline in the market today.
