the disaster that the war brought to Qatar; Gas exporter turned importer Oil price: Qatar, which was the world's second largest exporter of liquefied natural gas (LNG) before the war against Iran, is now on track to become the largest buyer of US LNG. This rotation is a direct result of the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Qatar does not intend to transfer this gas to its soil. The goal is to sell American LNG directly to countries that depend on gas imports, as passage through the Strait of Hormuz has become expensive and dangerous. Qatar's energy minister said that we should transport LNG in the form of gas through the pipeline and then discharge it again at the destination terminals. This means building a double facility elsewhere, which has no economic justification. Qatar, which once had a heavy weight in the global gas market relying on the North Gonabad gas field (a joint field with Iran) and its geographical location, has now turned to buying from competitors to maintain its market share. - Link.
