Qatar's prime minister told the Financial Times that the country will resume liquefied natural gas production within weeks. The statement follows a period of reduced output; no further details were provided regarding specific facilities or volumes.
Qatar's Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani said in an interview with the Financial Times that Doha will resume liquefied natural gas (LNG) production within weeks. The statement, reported Wednesday morning by Israeli news outlet N12, offers a timeline for restoring output that has been constrained in recent months. No further details on the specific facilities, volumes, or the cause of the production halt were disclosed. The announcement comes as Qatar continues to play a prominent role in regional diplomacy, including mediation between the US and Iran, though the prime minister's remarks on gas were focused on energy markets rather than geopolitical context.
