Saudi Aramco is suspending liquefied petroleum gas shipments next month after damage to its main export facility in late February cut off supplies of the fuel, according to people familiar with the matter.

The state producer informed buyers recently that shipments from the Juaymah LPG facility would continue to be suspended through May, according to the people, who asked not to identified because the information isn’t public. Aramco declined to comment.
