Qatar targets increased gas exports to China

Qatar is eyeing more gas exports to China and Asia, where stronger demand can meet the tiny emirate’s fast-rising gas production.

As the gas-rich emirate inaugurated the latest liquefied natural gas export facility on Tuesday, the energy minister said the government is discussing more long-term contracts with Chinese and other customers as it sticks to its aim to double national output to 77m tonnes a year by September 2010.

Abdullah bin Hamad al-Attiyah said he was a big believer in the Chinese market.
