- Indian Oil Corp IOC.NS, the country's top refiner, issued a tender on Thursday to charter a very large gas carrier to lift liquefied petroleum gas from Qatar, Kuwait or the United Arab Emirates, a tender document showed.

The tender - the first to be issued by IOC since the U.S. and Iran signed an interim agreement to end their war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz - is seeking to lift cargoes between June 30 and July 4 from the ports of Ras Laffan in Qatar, Mina Al Ahmadi in Kuwait, or Ruwais in the UAE, the document showed.
