QatarEnergy LNG, formerly Qatargas, is the world's largest liquefied natural gas (LNG) company. It produces and supplies the globe with 77 million metric tonnes of LNG annually from across its seven ventures—QatarEnergy LNG N(1), QatarEnergy LNG N(2), QatarEnergy LNG N(3), QatarEnergy LNG N(4),[1] RL1, RL2 and RL3.[2] It is headquartered in Doha, Qatar, and maintains its upstream assets in Ras Laffan, Qatar. Natural gas is supplied to the company's LNG trains from Qatar's North Field, by far the world's largest non-associated gas field. It reached a record LNG production of 77 million tonnes per year in December 2010.[3] According to Brand Finance, QatarEnergy LNG is the world's fastest growing oil and gas brand in 2023.[4][5] QatarGas is said to be used through gas diplomacy as leverage by Qatar on the EU and India to advance its interests and silence criticism of its human rights violations and corruption.[6][7][8]
