QatarEnergy, formerly known as Qatar Petroleum, is the state-owned petroleum company of the State of Qatar and serves as the centerpiece of the country’s hydrocarbon sector. It is responsible for all phases of the energy value chain, including exploration, production, refining, transport, and marketing of oil and natural gas, as well as petrochemicals and liquefied natural gas (LNG). The company manages Qatar’s substantial hydrocarbon reserves, which rank among the largest in the world, particularly in natural gas, making it a global leader in LNG exports.

QatarEnergy operates both domestically and internationally, with upstream and downstream projects spanning multiple continents, including the Middle East, Africa, the Americas, and Asia-Pacific. Domestically, it manages onshore and offshore oil and gas fields, LNG trains, refining, petrochemical complexes, and gas-to-liquids (GTL) facilities. Internationally, the company has pursued equity stakes in exploration and production blocks, LNG projects, and joint ventures with major global energy firms to diversify its portfolio and gain access to strategic hydrocarbon resources.

The company plays a central role in Qatar’s economic development and energy diplomacy, leveraging its hydrocarbon assets to secure long-term partnerships and supply agreements worldwide. QatarEnergy has been actively transitioning toward sustainability initiatives, including carbon management, carbon capture and storage, and hydrogen development, aligning with global energy transition trends while maintaining its leadership in conventional oil and gas markets.

History

The first well, Dukhan 1, was drilled in 1939. Development continued after World War II and in 1949 the first crude exports occurred and the first offshore concessions were granted. In 1960, the Idd Al-Shargi and Maydan Mahzam fields were discovered. The largest offshore field, Bul Hanine, was discovered in 1970 and came onstream in 1972. QatarEnergy ​was created in 1974.

E&P  Operations

Angola

In August 2020, Qatar Petroleum entered into a farm-in agreement with Sonangol, the national oil company of Angola, and Total to acquire a 30% participating interest in Block 48, located in the ultra-deep waters offshore Angola.

The block, with a drill ready opportunity covers an area of approximately 3,600 square kilometers, and is expected to be drilled as part of a 2020/2021 drilling program.

The farm-in agreement is subject to customary approvals by the Angolan Government. Upon receipt of such approvals, the parties respective interests in Block 48 will be as follows: Total (40% - Operator), Sonangol (30%), and Qatar Petroleum (30%).

Block 48 is located in the ultra-deep waters offshore Lower Congo Basin, approximately 400 km northwest of Luanda and 200 km West of Soyo onshore facilities. The average water depth in the block is around 2,500 meters.

Mexico

QatarEnergy has established an upstream presence in Mexico via offshore oil and gas exploration and production assets. Its activities in Mexico are primarily concentrated in the Gulf of Mexico region — specifically the Campeche Basin and adjacent offshore areas.

In December 2018, QatarEnergy entered an agreement with Eni SpA to acquire a 35 % participating interest in three offshore oil fields located in Area 1 of Mexico’s Campeche Bay: the Amoca, Mizton and Tecoalli fields. These assets are operated under a production-sharing contract. The fields in Area 1 were estimated to contain about 2.1 billion barrels of oil-equivalent, around 90% of which was oil, and full-field production was targeted for 2021 via a floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) facility with a capacity of 90,000 barrels per day.

In May 2020, QatarEnergy agreed to acquire approximately a 30% working interest in three additional offshore blocks (Blocks 15, 33 and 34) in the Campeche Basin, by way of farm-in agreements with TotalEnergies SE (and in the case of Block 34, with BP p.l.c. as operator) subject to regulatory approval. These blocks are situated within 30-90 km of the large Cantarell and KMZ oilfields and span around 2,300 km² with water depths ranging approximately from 10 m to 1,100 m.

QatarEnergy additionally holds a 40% interest in Blocks 3,4,6,7 and 35% in Block 24.

Suriname

QatarEnergy has been actively expanding its upstream footprint in Suriname’s emerging offshore oil and gas sector. In May 2023 it entered into two Production Sharing Contracts (PSCs) for Blocks 6 and 8 offshore Suriname, acquiring a 20 % working interest in each of these shallow-water blocks. The remaining interests in each are held by TotalEnergies (as operator with 40 %) and Paradise Oil Company (40 %), which is a subsidiary of the national oil company Staatsolie Maatschappij Suriname NV.

In December 2023 QatarEnergy signed PSCs for deeper-water Blocks 64 and 65. In Block 64 it acquired a 30% share alongside TotalEnergies (operator, 40 %) and Petronas (30 %). For Block 65 it acquired a 40% share with Shell as operator (60 %). These blocks lie about 200–250 km offshore in water depths of roughly 1,300–1,700 metres.

In July 2024 QatarEnergy further broadened its Suriname exposure by acquiring a 20 % interest in Block 5 offshore, in partnership with Chevron (operator, 40 %) and Paradise Oil Company (40 %). Block 5 lies in shallow waters (30–45 metres) about 75 km off the Surinamese coast; the exploration licence is advancing to its second phase and includes a drilling commitment.

In November 2025, QatarEnergy signed two new production sharing contracts (PSC) for offshore Blocks 9 and 10 in Suriname.

QatarEnergy will hold a 20% working interest in Block 9, with its partners PETRONAS Suriname E&P B.V. (PETRONAS Suriname), (the operator) holding 30%, Chevron holding 20%, and Staatsolie’s affiliate, Paradise Oil Company (POC) holding 30%. QatarEnergy will also hold a 30% working interest in Block 10, with its partners Chevron (the operator) holding 30%, PETRONAS Suriname holding 30%, and POC holding 10%.

Cyprus

QatarEnergy holds upstream exploration interests offshore the Republic of Cyprus under a partnership with ExxonMobil that covers two principal offshore blocks: Block 10 (award granted in 2017) where QatarEnergy’s working interest is 40%, and Block 5 (contract signed in December 2021) where they likewise hold 40 % with ExxonMobil as operator at 60%.

In Block 10, the consortium drilled the “Glaucus‑1” exploration well in 2019 which discovered natural gas; an appraisal well “Glaucus-2” was executed in 2022.

In Block 5, known as the “Electra/Elektra” prospect, drilling commenced in early 2025 (spudded January 2025) at the Elektra-1 well. While the well confirmed the existence of a hydrocarbon system and good-quality reservoir, it did not encounter gas in commercial volumes.

In Block 10 “Pegasus‑1” returned a reservoir with around 350 metres of gas-bearing sediment at a water-depth of roughly 1,921 metres. Further evaluation is ongoing to assess its commercial viability.

Morocco

QatarEnergy has established a presence in the upstream oil and gas sector of Morocco through participation in exploration permits and offshore blocks. In 2016, QatarEnergy acquired a 30 % interest in three deep-water offshore leases west and northwest of Agadir (namely Cap Rhir Deep, Cap Cantin Deep and Cap Walidia Deep).

Later, in March 2019 the company entered into an agreement with Eni to acquire a 30% participating interest in the “Tarfaya Shallow Exploration Permit” comprising 12 neighbouring offshore blocks along Morocco’s Atlantic coast, with Eni as operator holding 45% and the Moroccan state agency Office National des Hydrocarbures et des Mines (ONHYM) holding 25%.

According to QatarEnergy’s 2022 summary, the company has retained a 30 % working interest in the Tarfaya Basin permit, and seismic re-processing and studies are ongoing to identify future drilling targets. 
QatarEnergy

In addition to upstream exploration interests, QatarEnergy signed a ten-year agreement in 2024 to supply up to 7.5 million tonnes of sulphur to Moroccan fertiliser company OCP Nutricrops (a subsidiary of OCP Group) beginning in 2024, strengthening its commercial ties in Morocco.

While the upstream licences remain under exploration, QatarEnergy’s strategy in Morocco reflects a broader push into frontier upstream basins and supports the country’s aim to develop its hydrocarbon potential.

Egypt

QatarEnergy has been steadily expanding its oil and gas operations in the Arab Republic of Egypt, especially in offshore exploration.

Its activity began with entering Egypt via a farm-in of offshore blocks alongside major international players. For example, QatarEnergy signed a farm‐in agreement in May 2024 with ExxonMobil to acquire a 40 % working interest in two very deep offshore exploration blocks called “Cairo” and “Masry”, which lie in water depths of around 2,000–3,000 metres and cover approximately 11,400 km².

In November 2024 QatarEnergy acquired a 23 % working interest in the North El-Dabaa (H4) Block, located about 10 km off Egypt’s Mediterranean coast in water depths ranging approximately from 100 to 3,000 metres.

In October 2025, QatarEnergy moved further into the Egyptian offshore sector by acquiring a 40% participating interest in the North Rafah exploration block via a farm-in with Eni, which remains operator with the remaining 60%. The block covers around 3,000 km² and lies in water depths up to about 450 metres.

In addition, QatarEnergy agreed in 2025 to acquire a 27 % interest in the North Cleopatra (Herodotus Basin) offshore block from Shell, the block being in the Herodotus basin of the eastern Mediterranean, depths up to ca. 2,600 m, subject to Egyptian government approval.

QatarEnergy's operations in Egypt are focused on exploration rather than developed production. The company is working with partners and the Egyptian Ministry of Petroleum and Mineral Resources on seismic, exploratory drilling plans and eventually on development if discoveries are made.

Canada East Coast

QatarEnergy has established a significant exploration presence on Canada’s Atlantic coast, specifically offshore the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. In October 2021, the company signed a farm-in agreement with ExxonMobil Canada for exploration licence EL 1165A in water depths of the region, marking its initial entry into the Canadian offshore market.

In March 2023 QatarEnergy expanded its Canadian footprint via another farm-in deal with ExxonMobil Canada covering two additional offshore licences. Under that agreement, QatarEnergy acquired a 28% working interest in licence EL 1167 (operator ExxonMobil Canada with 50 %, and the Canadian firm Cenovus Energy holding 22%). Simultaneously it acquired a 40 % working interest in licence EL 1162, where ExxonMobil Canada remains the operator with the remaining 60%.

Both EL 1167 and EL 1162 licences lie in water depths ranging from about 100 m to 1,200 m and cover quite large areas -  approximately 1,420 km² for EL 1167, and about 2,400 km² for EL 1162.

Qatar

QatarEnergy is the state‐owned oil and gas company of the State of Qatar, responsible for the full spectrum of hydrocarbon operations—from exploration and production of crude oil, natural gas and gas liquids, through refining, long-haul transport, liquefied natural gas (LNG) processing and trading, downstream petrochemicals and international investments.

At its heart is the giant North Field, shared politically (and geologically) with Iran, which is the world’s largest non-associated natural gas field. QatarEnergy draws massive volumes of natural gas and condensate from this field for domestic use and export.

Major oil production stems from the Al Shaheen Oil Field offshore Qatar, which accounted for about 45% of Qatar’s oil production in 2023 and which QatarEnergy holds a large stake in (in partnership with other companies).

Republic of Congo

In September 2025 QatarEnergy was awarded an exploration licence for the offshore “Nzombo block”, located about 90-100 km off the coast near Pointe‑Noire in deep waters (greater than 1,000 metres).

Under the terms of the production-sharing contract, QatarEnergy holds a 35% participating interest, the operator TotalEnergies EP Congo (via its affiliate) holds 50% and the national company Société Nationale des Pétroles du Congo (SNPC) holds the remaining 15%.

The licence area spans approximately 1,000 km² (some sources: 1,053 km²) and is positioned in a region where existing offshore production infrastructure (linked to the Moho field complex) is present — this proximity is cited as an advantage because development could benefit from synergies with existing facilities.

QatarEnergy previously held a smaller interest in TotalEnergies E&P Congo with a 15% share in producing deep-offshore fields such as the Moho Nord and Moho Bilondo.

From a strategic viewpoint this move in the Republic of Congo fits QatarEnergy’s broader international upstream expansion into frontier/deep-water basins. It also aligns with the host country’s ambition to increase oil and gas output and develop offshore resources by leveraging existing infrastructure and deeper water blocks.

South Africa

QatarEnergy recently entered the South African offshore oil and gas arena by acquiring a 24% participating interest in Licence Block 3B/4B (offshore South Africa, western coast) via a farm-in agreement alongside TotalEnergies as operator. The block lies in the renowned Orange Basin, about 200 km off the coast of South Africa, and covers approximately 17,581 km².

Under the terms of the deal, TotalEnergies holds 33 % as operator and QatarEnergy’s 24% stake brings its international upstream expansion into a frontier deep-water basin. The remaining participating interests are held by existing license holders including Africa Oil Corporation (~17%), Ricocure (~19.75%) and Eco Atlantic Oil & Gas (~6.25%).

This opportunity fits QatarEnergy’s strategy of building a global portfolio of upstream stakes in frontier/deepwater settings. The Orange Basin is considered highly prospective, with external commentary estimating that the South African side of the basin could contain billions of barrels of oil equivalent in undiscovered resources.

the Block 3B/4B project remains in the exploration stage — no commercial production has been announced yet, and workstreams will include seismic evaluation, prospect maturation, and follow-up drilling.

Brazil

QatarEnergy has established a meaningful upstream footprint in Brazil, engaging both producing assets and exploration blocks.

In the prolific pre-salt Santos Basin off Brazil’s coast, QatarEnergy entered the asset known as the Sépia Field through a production-sharing contract awarded in December 2021. According to reports, QatarEnergy holds about a 14.4% interest alongside Petrobras (the operator) and partners such as TotalEnergies and Petronas. This field is in ultra-deep water (around 2,000 metres) and has been producing via floating production/storage units (FPSOs). In May 2024 the consortium announced a Final Investment Decision (FID) for the second development phase of the Sépia field, which includes a new FPSO with a capacity of 225,000 barrels of oil per day and gas processing of 10 million cubic metres per day.

Beyond Sépia, QatarEnergy also participates in the Água‑Marinha block, awarded in the first-cycle permanent offer by Brazil’s regulatory agency ANP in December 2022. In this block, located in the pre-salt Campos Basin, QatarEnergy holds a 20 % working interest alongside TotalEnergies (30%), Petrobras (30%, operator) and PPBL-Petronas (20%). The block covers about 1,300 km² and lies in water depths around 2,000 metres. The initial work programme includes drilling one firm exploration well.

Kenya

QatarEnergy (formerly Qatar Petroleum) entered the Kenyan upstream oil and gas sector in July 2019 by signing agreements with Eni and TotalEnergies to acquire a 25% participating interest across three frontier exploration blocks (L11A, L11B and L12) located offshore Kenya in the Lamu Basin.

The total area of these blocks is approximately 15,000 km², in water depths ranging from about 1,000 m up to 3,000 m. 
NS Energy Business. Under the transaction, Eni would serve as operator with about 41.25% interest, TotalEnergies about 33.75%, and QatarEnergy about 25%.

The strategic rationale for QatarEnergy’s involvement is its broader upstream growth strategy targeting frontier/deepwater basins and leveraging partnerships with major global oil companies. In its 2021 annual review, QatarEnergy reported that it had acquired the 25% working interest in the Lamu blocks, and indicated that the first exploration well (“Mlima-1”) was being matured for drilling in early 2022. As of now, there is no publicly announced commercial discovery or production plan associated with QatarEnergy’s Kenyan offshore interest.

Guyana

QatarEnergy entered into upstream oil and gas operations offshore the Co-operative Republic of Guyana by partnering with TotalEnergies (and other parties) through the joint vehicle TOQAP Guyana B.V. (“TOQAP”). QatarEnergy holds a 10% indirect working interest via its 40% share in TOQAP which in turn holds a 25% working interest in two offshore licences—namely the Orinduik and Kanuku blocks.

The Orinduik block lies in shallow to moderate water depths (from about 70 m up to around 1,400 m) and spans roughly 1,800 km² offshore Guyana, approximately 120 km from the coast. The Kanuku block covers some 5,200 km² in water depths of about 70 m up to around 800 m and is located roughly 100 km offshore.

Three wells have been drilled since the transaction agreement with TotalEnergies. On the Kanuku licence the well “Beebel-1” was drilled in 2022. Despite the initial momentum, TOQAP (and therefore QatarEnergy’s interest) has relinquished its 25% working interest in the Orinduik block through assignment to Eco Atlantic Oil & Gas Ltd. (Eco) effective January 2024, indicating that QatarEnergy will not participate in the block’s further exploration phases.

In addition, the government of Guyana has approved bids by QatarEnergy, TotalEnergies and PETRONAS for new shallow-water blocks (for example block S4) through competitive tender; final production-sharing agreements are under negotiation.

Lebanon

QatarEnergy entered the Lebanese offshore hydrocarbon sector in January 2023 by acquiring a 30% working interest in two exploration licences—Blocks 4 and 9—off the coast of the Republic of Lebanon. This stake was obtained through a transfer from the consortium led by TotalEnergies and Eni, who retained 35% each in the two blocks, with TotalEnergies as operator.

The move followed a U.S.-mediated maritime border agreement between Lebanon and Israel in October 2022, which cleared a longstanding dispute over offshore territory and unlocked the ability to proceed with deepwater exploration.

The venture remains at exploration stage, with no commercial production announced, and the broader geopolitical, fiscal and regulatory environment in Lebanon—characterised by economic crisis and institutional uncertainty—adds layers of risk to the project’s timeline and viability.

Mauritania

QatarEnergy announced an agreement in April 2023 to acquire a 40 % working interest in the offshore Block C‑10 in the Islamic Republic of Mauritania from Shell. The C‑10 block covers about 11,500 km², lies approximately 50 km off the Mauritanian coast, and spans water depths from roughly 50 m to up to 2,000 m. Under the deal, Shell remains operator with 50% interest, while the national oil company Société Mauritanienne des Hydrocarbures (SMH) holds 10%.

Given the water depths and size of the block, the geological potential is significant, but with high exploration risk — especially in terms of whether commercially viable hydrocarbon volumes will be found, how the development would tie into infrastructure in Mauritania’s offshore and onshore sectors, and the regulatory/fiscal environment of Mauritania.

Namibia

QatarEnergy has significantly expanded its upstream hydrocarbon presence in the Republic of Namibia, focusing on deep‑water exploration in the prolific Orange Basin. In a recent deal announced in November 2024, the company agreed with TotalEnergies to acquire an additional 5.25% interest in Block 2913B (also designated PEL 56) and 4.695 % additional interest in Block 2912 (PEL 91). Through this transaction, QatarEnergy’s stake will rise to 35.25% in 2913B and 33.025% in 2912.

These licences lie roughly 300 km offshore Namibia, in water depths ranging between 2,600 m to 3,800 m.

QatarEnergy’s involvement in Namibia goes back to earlier exploration holdings: it holds interests in PEL 39 (sometimes quoted as “Block 2913A/2914B”) along with partner Shell plc and the national oil company NAMCOR. In that block, a deep‑water well called “Jonker‑1X” reached a total depth of 6,168 m in water depths around 2,210 m and encountered light oil, subject to further appraisal.

QatarEnergy is a non‑operator in many of its Namibian licences (for example TotalEnergies operates Blocks 2913B and 2912). The agreements are subject to customary governmental and regulatory approvals in Namibia. The company has publicly stated its intent to 'work collaboratively with partners toward the development of the Venus discovery located on Block 2913B'.

There remain notable development and commercialisation challenges: deep‑water ultra‑heavy infrastructure will be needed, and recent filings by Shell noted that its partner blocks (including those with QatarEnergy stake) faced geological/permeability issues that may hinder commercial viability.

Mozambique

QatarEnergy has built a presence offshore the Republic of Mozambique via multiple exploration‑block interests. In December 2018 the company (then still under its former name) agreed a farm‑in to acquire a 10% participating interest in a group of three offshore exploration licences in the Angoche and Zambezi basins—these blocks were held by a consortium led by ExxonMobil as operator (50%), national oil company Empresa Nacional de Hidrocarbonetos (ENH) with 20% and Rosneft with 20%.

In March 2019 QatarEnergy further expanded its interests by entering into an agreement with Eni for Block A5‑A in the Angoche basin, acquiring around a 25.5% participating interest (with Eni as operator, Sasol at ~25.5%, ENH at 15%).

The 2022 annual review of QatarEnergy lists its Mozambique interests as: Block A5‑A at ~25.5% and Blocks A5‑B & Z5‑C & Z5‑D at ~10 % (exploration) in Mozambique.

REFINING

QatarEnergy​​ Refinery complex located in Mesaieed Industrial City was first established in 1954 and then modified through several expansion phases to meet the growing domestic requirement in Qatar, with the capacity to process more than 100,000 barrels of feed per day.

SEEF Chemical Plant was integrated with QatarEnergy Refinery in 2020.The main activity of the Refinery is to process crude oil and condensate into various finished products to meet domestic demand as well as for export.​

LNG processing and export

QatarEnergy’s LNG operations are anchored in Ras Laffan Industrial City, where offshore wells feed gas to onshore liquefaction trains and storage/loading terminals. Its subsidiary QatarEnergy LNG (formerly Qatargas) operates 14 LNG trains processing gas from the North Field, making Qatar one of the world’s largest LNG exporters.

QatarEnergy has embarked on a major expansion project for the North Field, aiming to raise LNG production capacity from about 77 million tons per annum to ~110 MTPA (and beyond) by the mid-2020s, reflecting its strategy to cement Qatar’s leading role in global LNG markets.

Midstream, refining and petrochemicals

Beyond upstream and LNG, QatarEnergy manages domestic pipelines, export terminals, oil storage (for example on Halul Island) and refining. It also participates in gas-to-liquids (GTL) plants such as ORYX GTL, converting gas into synthetic petroleum products.

In the downstream sector, QatarEnergy is involved in large petrochemical complexes (for example ethane crackers in Ras Laffan) and is increasingly integrating the value chain within Qatar rather than simply exporting raw hydrocarbon.

EPSA/DPSA

Al-Khaleej Gas project (AKG)

​​​​​Al-Khaleej Gas project (AKG) uses reserves fro​m the North Field to supply 2 bcf/d of sales gas to domestic consumers. The project also produces condensate, ethane, LPG and sulfur. The agreement to launch AKG was signed in May 2000 between ExxonMobil and QatarEnergy​. It has been developed to meet the growing demand of local industries and to further the State of Qatar’s ambitious growth and development plans.

Pipeline Gas Projects

​Dolphin Energy’s Dolphin Gas Project was created in 1999 to produce, process and transport by pipeline natural gas from Qatar’s North Field to the UAE and Oman, in support of long-term industrial growth. Since July 2007, the company has been producing, processing and supplying substantial quantities of natural gas from offshore Qatar to the United Arab Emirates and, as of October 2008, to Oman. The Gas Processing Plant – Dolphin’s plant at Ras Laffan Industrial City strips out valuable commercial products -- condensate, LPGs, ethane and sulfur—for sale locally and to world markets. The resulting processed gas is then transported by pipeline to the UAE and to Oman. The Export Pipeline initially carries gas at a maximum rate of 2 billion standard cubic feet per day, with provision for this to be expanded to 3.2 billion cubic feet per day. Other projects are at various stages to supply gas to Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman and Pakistan.​
