近日，卡塔尔在大规模LNG扩建前签订了更多船舶合同。

据悉，卡塔尔到2030年，将把北方油田的年产能从目前的7700万吨提高到1.42亿吨。此种情况下，卡塔尔便需要有更多的LNG运输船。

据了解，目前，卡塔尔能源公司为了提高产量，已经签署了四项协议，向亚洲船舶运营商租用19艘液化天然气运输船。

Qatar recently signed contracts for more ships ahead of a major LNG expansion.

It is reported that Qatar will increase the annual production capacity of the northern oil field from the current 77 million tons to 142 million tons by 2030. In this case, Qatar will need more LNG carriers.

In order to increase production, Qatar Energy has signed four agreements to charter 19 LNG carriers from Asian ship operators.
