Worlds largest gas field on fire: what caused the South Pars gas field fire - Are global gas prices and energy markets on the verge of a massive surge?

South Pars gas field fire: the worlds largest gas field on fire is disrupting global energy supply and markets. Holding nearly 10% of global natural gas reserves, this Iran-Qatar field faces major damage after strikes. The South Pars gas field fire is already pushing gas prices higher and raising supply fears. European natural gas prices showed immediate upward movement. Asia, Europe, and emerging markets all rely on stable gas supplies.
