这个新项目将令卡塔尔的LNG产能从7700万吨/年提高至1亿吨/年。

这个项目的时间表设定为从宣布日期起的5-7年时间内完成。

Qatar Petroleum eyes first LNG from North Field expansion by end-2023

Qatar Petroleum expects to begin LNG production from its North Field expansion project by the end of 2023, its CEO said Monday, on the occasion of the award of the Front End Engineering and Design of the onshore facilities to Japan's Chiyoda Corp.

State-owned Qatar Petroleum is also looking to form a joint venture with international partners to deliver the North Field expansion first announced in July last year.

The new project will enable Doha to raise LNG production capacity from 77 million mt/year to 100 million mt/year.

At the time, the timetable for the project was set at five to seven years from the date of the announcement.
