ExxonMobil
Overview
In Qatar, ExxonMobil has partnered with Qatar Petroleum to develop the North Field, the world’s largest non-associated natural gas field. Through the Qatargas-operated joint ventures, they have participated in 12 of the 14 LNG trains, 27 of the world’s largest LNG ships and Qatar’s largest condensate refinery. Further down the LNG value chain, ExxonMobil has partnered with QP in three LNG receiving terminals in Europe and the United States.
Additionally, ExxonMobil is the only foreign participant in two domestic gas projects – Al Khaleej Gas and Barzan Gas. ExxonMobil also provides technical and management expertise to directly support Qatar Petroleum through technical services and secondments of ExxonMobil employees. ExxonMobil affiliates are working with Qatar Petroleum (QP) to identify International joint venture opportunities that further enhance the portfolio of both parties in countries such as Brazil, Argentina, the United States and Cyprus.
In 2009, ExxonMobil Research Qatar (EMRQ) was established at Qatar Science and Technology Park (QSTP) to conduct research in areas of common interest to the State of Qatar and ExxonMobil. Scientists and researchers at EMRQ continue to advance projects in environmental management, water reuse, LNG safety and coastal geology. By using global knowledge to develop local resources, EMRQ is able to create an invaluable link between the local and international research communities.
ExxonMobil is proud to contribute to the Qatar National Vision 2030, the country’s roadmap to continued advancement for the next 10 years by driving human development, contributing to its thriving society, and supporting responsible and sustainable development.
