Norsk Hydro declared a second force majeure on aluminium sales from Qatar after its Qatalum joint venture unexpectedly terminated a marketing agreement with the company. The disruption points to supply and contractual uncertainty in aluminium sales, which is negative for Norsk Hydro’s operating visibility and near-term revenue recognition. While important for the company, the news is unlikely to have broad market-wide impact.
