European gas reserves are at a 15-year low, with storage levels at 65% capacity, raising concerns ahead of the winter season. The Middle East conflict and the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz have disrupted global LNG supply, particularly from Qatar, leading to higher gas prices and slower stockpiling efforts. To meet the EU's 75% storage target, over 100 terawatt hours of gas are needed, amounting to approximately €7 billion at current prices.
