According to Jin10, Asian LNG imports are expected to reach 23.31 million metric tons in October, a three-month high, despite spot prices surging to nearly a four-year high. Data compiled by commodities analytics firm Kpler put October arrivals at 23.31 million metric tons, the highest since July, when imports totaled 23.38 million metric tons. October's total would also be the second-highest monthly figure since the conflict in the Middle East began on February 28, when the United States and Israel launched attacks on Iran.
