LNG

US major ConocoPhillips and QatarEnergy will combine to provide 2 million tonnes per annum of LNG to Germany’s new onshore import terminal under development at Brunsbüttel on the Elbe River.

QatarEnergy selected ConocoPhillips as its third and final international partner in the North Field South (NFS) expansion project comprising two LNG mega-Trains with a combined capacity of 16 million tonnes per annum and said free markets in energy were the best ways forward.

US credit ratings agency Moody’s Investors Service has affirmed the high credit rating of Qatar Petroleum as it embarks on liquefied natural gas expansions and the projects are expected to be completed on time.
