Qatar Petroleum Refinery’ onshore operations occupy a site within Ras Laffan Industrial City on a plot of land 7.8 square kilometres in area. The original plant consisted of only three trains to process the natural gas from offshore into the export product known as Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG). The capacity of these first three trains is 10 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) of LNG.
Through step out technologies a new era of mega-trains began. In 2009, Qatar Petroleum Refinery’ Trains 4 and 5 began operating, each with a capacity of 7.8 mtpa. In late 2010 Qatar Petroleum Refinery’ Train 6 began producing LNG followed by Qatar Petroleum Refinery’ Train 7 in early 2011. Qatar Petroleum Refinery’ Trains 6 and 7 each have a capacity of 7.8 mtpa.

Qatar Petroleum Refinery’ onshore facilities include 14 LNG trains, of which 6 are ‘mega-trains’ (each with a capacity of 7.8 mtpa). For pipeline sales gas to the domestic market, Qatar Petroleum Refinery operates the Al Khaleej Gas (AKG) trains, AKG-1 and AKG-2, supplying approximately two bscfd.
We also produce condensate feedstock for downstream industries as well as other associated products such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), ethane, sulphur and natural gas liquids (NGL). Qatar Petroleum Refinery also manages and operates Ras Laffan Helium Plants 1 and 2, with a combined liquid helium production capacity of 2.1 bscf per year.
