Qatar Energy signed a partnership deal with Eni (ENI.MI) on Sunday for the North Field East expansion of the world's largest liquefied natural gas (LNG) project, having announced a deal with TotalEnergies earlier this month.

Qatar Energy CEO Saad al-Kaabi said the joint venture with Eni would own 12.5% of the North Field East expansion. Eni would own 25% of the joint venture, Kaabi told a news conference, giving the Italian producer a 3.12% stake in the expansion.
