Is it true that the Strait of Hormuz carries about 20 percent of global oil and gas supply?

Yes. A Wikipedia reference states that during 2023–2025, 20% of the world's liquefied natural gas and 25% of seaborne oil trade passed through the Strait of Hormuz, and several other sources describe it as carrying roughly one-fifth of global oil or LNG trade.
