Additional Details Marwa Rashad, Reuters London, October 7 – According to two informed sources, the first liquefied natural gas (LNG) production line of QatarEnergy’s “North Field East” expansion project is ready to begin operations in November, offering Qatar a way to recover part of its output lost after attacks by Iran. As Qatar continues to address the damage in the Ras Laffan region—where the attack resulted in the loss of 17% of the country's LNG production capacity—the commissioning of this line marks a major milestone for the world’s largest LNG expansion project. Last month, QatarEnergy CEO Saad al-Kaabi said the project is still expected to come online in the first half of 2027, despite the US-Israel coalition’s war against Iran causing interruptions to shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. Two industry sources said the company expects to begin LNG production tests in November, with one indicating that as long as the Strait of Hormuz remains closed, commercial commissioning may be delayed to the first quarter of 2027.
