Iran; An alternative route for Qatar gas exports.

Following the attack on the Ras Laffan facilities on March 27 and 19, 1404, approximately 17% of Qatar's LNG export capacity was taken out of service. Rebuilding these facilities will take three to five years, and Qatar has had to announce deadlines for several long-term contracts. In order to maintain Qatar's market share, Iran can offer to purchase and exchange at least 40 billion cubic meters of the country's increased gas production in future development plans. Under this plan, the gas will be transported to Iran through a pipeline instead of being converted into LNG. Half of this volume can be exchanged from Iran to Turkey, and the other half can be exported to destinations such as Iraq or Pakistan after the purchase of Iran. This plan can secure Qatar's economic interests and strengthen relations between Tehran, Ankara and Doha. Read the full text here.
