Qatar, Italy sign gas deal

Published October 24, 2023

DOHA: Qatar has agreed to supply Italian firm Eni with natural gas for 27 years, the Gulf emirate’s state-owned energy company announced Monday, the latest in a series of major deals.

Doha will supply one million tonnes of gas a year under the deal, QatarEnergy said, following an agreement with Eni for a share of Qatar’s huge North Field gas expansion project.

In the wake of Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine last year, European nations have rushed to repl­ace lost deliveries of natural gas from Russia.

“Today, we are taking another important step in strengthening our partnership with Eni that will foster our mutual cooperation for many years to come,” Qatari Energy Minister Saad al-Kaabi said.
