His Excellency Al-Attiyah launches the 77 task force - on the road to realising the Vision - Qatar delivering 77 million tonnes of LNG to the world
Doha, Qatar: Aug 30 , 2010: As the State of Qatar moves closer to realizing the Vision of His Highness the Emir, Sheikh Hamad Bin Khalifa Al-Thani, for Qatar to reach a liquefied natural gas production capacity of 77 million tonnes per annum, by far the largest LNG capacity in the world, His Excellency Deputy Premier and Minister of Energy & Industry and Chairman of Qatar Petroleum, Abdullah Bin Hamad Al-Attiyah, has announced the formation of a multi-company, multi- discipline 77Mta Task Force charged with marking the achievement of this historic milestone.
His Excellency Al-Attiyah, in delivering the directive said:
“With the imminent completion of Qatargas Train 6 and 7 and the earlier completion of RasGas Train 7, we, Qatar, will have an installed capacity of some 77 million tonnes of liquefied natural gas - thus fulfilling His Highness’s vision. This is a milestone of historic significance for the state of Qatar. Our country will certainly take centre position on the world energy stage as the world’s largest LNG producer. I am very proud of this achievement and look forward to the celebration. ”
His Excellency added:
“Thanks to the far-sighted vision of and the firm commitment from His Highness the Emir, and the continuous support of H.H. Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al-Thani, the Heir Apparent, the country is now at the forefront of the world’s LNG industry. This unparalleled achievement would not have been possible, also, without the strenuous efforts of countless number of people involved in every stage of our ambitious LNG projects. The application of state-of-the-art technology and the introduction of innovative approaches also helped speed up this process.”
In addition to His Excellency’s formation of the 77Mta Task Force, His Excellency appointed Abdulaziz Al Malki, Director, Office of Deputy Premier, as Chair of the 77 Higher Committee to oversee the plans.
The 77 Higher Committee has representation from the Qatar Petroleum (QP) Group of Companies, namely Qatargas, RasGas and Ras Laffan Industrial City (RLIC) led by QP. It will be the first time this dynamic group of companies and disciplines will have come together to present such a significant achievement for the State of Qatar.
Work is already underway to ensure that every aspect and milestone, from the conception of His Highness’ vision to the present day, is captured in a unique and inspiring way.
Close communication and collaboration has begun with other interested stakeholders, including the offices of the Emiri Diwan and company shareholder representatives, ensuring this significant milestone is captured in a way that has never been seen before.
The central event of the 77 Mta of LNG will take the form of a celebration showing all aspects of the projects, the people and infrastructure which have made this achievement possible.
Mr. AbdulAziz Al Malki added that:
“Our combined aim is to put together a unique platform ? and a breathtaking event - which will demonstrate to the world our pride and the recognition of all who have supported Qatar in turning His Highness’s vision into reality”
It is anticipated that the 77Mta event will be held on Monday 13 Dec 2010 at Ras Laffan to be shared with a global audience along with the world’s media.
At the national level, Qatar is committed to achieving the goals of the Qatari National Vision 2030.
This Vision identifies the key economic outcomes resulting from the responsible exploration of the nation’s oil and gas resources.
The 77Mta LNG achievement has certainly been instrumental in forging the Qatari skyline, the infrastructure, Qatar’s global positioning and providing lasting foundations for the education and the health of the nation as well as addressing issues of environmental well-being.
The 77Mta celebration will, in addition, recognize the need to establish a balance between reserves and production.
Today, as His Excellency Al-Attiyah announces the formation of the 77 Task Force, the first step in the journey of 77Mta has been taken.
Over the next 103 days the community in Qatar and exporting markets will be encouraged to engage, acknowledge and play their part in celebrating the nation’s LNG achievements.

Qatargas operating
company limited
Qatargas pioneered the liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry in
Qatar. Today, the company is realizing its vision to deliver LNG
to customers around the globe from our world-class facilities in
Qatar.
Qatargas was established in 1984 and since that time the Company
has progressively established itself as a leading player in the
LNG industry.
The company was originally formed to operate three LNG trains
with a design capacity of two million tonnes per annum (mtpa) each. The
shareholders in this venture (referred to as Qatargas 1) are
Qatar Petroleum, ExxonMobil, Total, Mitsui and Marubeni.
After a successful debottlenecking project completed in 2005, the
total production capacity of Qatargas 1 increased to nearly ten
mtpa of LNG. Qatargas 1 exports LNG to customers in Japan and
Spain under long and mid-term contracts.
Currently the Company is undergoing a period of rapid expansion,
which when completed in 2010 will see us exporting 42 mtpa to
markets in Europe, Asia and North America.
In 2009, the Company successfully started production from two new
7.8 mtpa mega trains - Train 4 and Train 5. These are the largest
LNG trains to ever be built and togerther comprise Qatargas 2.
Qatargas 3 (Train 6) and Qatargas 4 (Train 7) will increase the
total number of LNG trains to seven from the existing five.
Qatargas 1 consists of three onshore LNG trains with a total combined capacity of 10 million tonnes per annum (mtpa).
The Qatargas offshore production, separation and treatment facilities on the North Field are located about 80 kilometers North-East of Qatar’s mainland.
22 production wells have been drilled and completed to supply 1,600 million standard cubic feet (45 million cubic meters) of raw natural gas per day from the field’s reservoir, underneath the seabed.
The processed gas is transferred to shore with the associated condensate via a single 32-inch sub-sea pipeline, where it becomes the feedstock for the onshore LNG plant.
The Onshore LNG plant occupies a site within Ras Laffan Industrial City on a plot of land 3.7 square kilometers in area. The onshore plant consists of three LNG trains. Each of the trains is 300 metres long and the trains process the natural gas into the export product known as Liquefied Natural Gas or LNG

The formation of the operating company has several benefits. In
addition to efficiently providing services to an increasing
number of trains and shareholders, the operating company
structure allows the Qatargas projects to achieve maximum
synergies. The role of the operating company is that of a service
provider with no equity interest.
With its current operations, Qatargas has delivered well over
1700 cargoes as of end 2009. Qatargas is recognized worldwide as
a secure and reliable supplier of LNG.

カタールガス社向けLNGプラント（第4、5系列建設）プロジェクト（QGX）はカタール ラスラファン沖のノースフィールドで採掘された 天然ガスを原料とし、2系列のプラントで各々年産780万トンのLNGを製造する世界初・最大規模のビックプロジェクトです。プラントのスケールアップに あたってはあらゆるケースを想定して設計およびシミュレーションを繰り返し、技術課題をクリアしていきました。敷地面積は380,000m2（東 京ドーム約30個分の広さ）、建設に携わった従事者はピーク時で40カ国から、一日あたり約27,000人にも及びます。カタールは「2010年までに年 産7,700万トンのLNGを生産する世界一のLNG生産国となる」ことを目指しており、まさにこの国家的プロジェクトの一翼を担ったのがQGXプロジェ クトです。なお、カタールで千代田が並行して遂行していた他の２つのLNGプロジェクトとともに、カタールLNGプラント建設実績、地球環境への貢献が評 価され、政府（経済産業省、国土交通省、文部科学省、厚生労働省）主催の第3回「ものづくり日本大賞」（海外展開部門）で部門最高位の賞となる経済産業大 臣賞を受賞しました。海外に展開するエンジニアリング業界では初の栄誉となりました。
Qatar Petroleum said on Tuesday it would take full ownership of its Qatargas 1 liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant when its 25-year contract with international investors including Exxon Mobil Corp and Total SE expires next year.
The decision not to extend the contracts for the country’s first-ever LNG processing plan came as Qatar Petroleum (QP), the world’s top LNG producer, prepares to vastly expand its capacity in the coming years with foreign investment.

カタール国営石油が最大100億ドル起債計画、ガス事業拡張で－関係者
カタール国営石油会社カタール・ペトロリアムは4－6月期中にも最大100億ドル（約１兆800億円）規模の債券を発行する計画だ。大規模な天然ガスプロジェクト向けの資金調達が目的。事情に詳しい関係者が明らかにした。QPは同社にとって初となるドル建て債のアレンジを金融機関に求めていると、情報の非公開を理由に関係者が匿名で語った。ＱＰは期間５年、10年、30年の債券を計70億ー100億ドル発行する意向だという。
関係者によると、調達した資金はガス田ノースフィールドの事業拡張に充てられる。カタールはこのプロジェクトを通じ、世界最大の液化天然ガス（LNG）輸出国としての地位を固める方針。生産能力を2027年までに50％余り引き上げ年１億2600万トンにすることを目指しており、その費用は290億ドルと見込まれる。

2021.2.10 千代田化工、カタールで1兆円超のLNG基地受注
プラント大手の千代田化工建設は9日、カタールの液化天然ガス（LNG）輸出基地の設計・建設業務を、フランスの企業と共同で受注したと発表した。受注総額は1兆数千億円規模に上り、このうち50％が千代田化工の契約額。日本企業が受注したLNGプラントでは過去最大級となる。
受注したLNG基地はカタールの国営石油会社が計画し、生産量は年間3200万トンとしている。2025年後半ごろ稼働する予定。既存のプラントと比べて温室効果ガスを25％削減できる設備も含まれる。
カタールは北東のペルシャ湾内にある世界最大級のガス田からLNGを増産する計画を進めており、総事業費は287億ドル（約3兆円）を見込む。今回のLNG基地整備により、年間生産量を1億1000万トンに引き上げられるという。
Qatargas 1, established in 1984, has an annual capacity of 10 million tonnes of LNG. It is a joint venture between QP, which holds a 65% stake with Total (10%), ExxonMobil (10%), Marubeni Corp (7.5%) and Mitsui & Co Ltd (7.5%).
Qatar Petroleum said in a statement it would not renew agreements with the companies when they expire on 31 December 2021.
“As a result, Qatar Petroleum will become the sole owner of 100% of the QG1 assets and facilities on 1 January 2022.”
International energy companies had previously hoped that partnerships with QP on existing LNG production facilities, known as trains, would be extend, albeit at different terms, analysts at Credit Suisse said in a note.
“QP had previously not indicated its approach for awarding the post-2021 contract. Now we know that when existing licenses expire, QP appears to plan without partners,” Credit Suisse said.
