Qatar is ready to meet its Japanese customers' increased needs for liquefied natural gas (LNG) as a result of Friday's earthquake and ensuing tsunami, Qatargas said on Monday.
The two state-controlled Qatari LNG giants -- Qatargas and Rasgas -- can make up for the quake-hit country's nuclear power loss which will mean relying more on gas-fired plants. "Qatargas stands ready to provide all the support to its long-term partners and foundation customers in Japan to meet any increased requirements for LNG at this time," a spokeswoman for the company said in a statement.
"Qatargas can also rely on our sister company RasGas to support Qatargas' efforts to meet our Japanese buyers and partners needs."
