Qatar is undertaking a major long-term expansion strategy in the North Field to increase the production of liquefied natural gas (LNG). The project, which involves tens of billions of dollars worth of investment, seeks to boost the country’s LNG capacity by 64% by 2027. The move is in line with the goal to capture greater global market share and is expected to help Qatar consolidate its position as the world’s largest LNG producer amid intensifying competition. Qatar anticipates that natural gas will remain a key part of the global energy mix for decades to come and that it will play a central role in the global transition to a low-carbon energy system.
