Qatar’s Ras Laffan is home to the biggest liquefied natural gas complex in the world.
Around 77 million tonnes of LNG is being exported from Ras Laffan on a yearly basis, making Qatar the world’s largest exporter of the chilled gas.
A big part of this LNG is being transported onboard vessels owned by Qatar’s Nakilat.
Nakilat’s 54 wholly and jointly owned LNG vessels represent a total investment of approximately US $11 billion and have a combined carrying capacity of over 8.5 million cubic meters or 15% of the world capacity.
The picture above shows a part of Nakilat’s fleet moored at the jetty’s of the Ras Laffan complex.
