Oil and Gas
Oil and Gas Loading Terminals are gateways and logistical centres, enabling the import, export and storage of crude oil, LNG and petroleum products. They also possess infrastructure to process, refine and distribute these goods around the world, supporting the energy supply chains.
Mentioned below are the 10 largest oil and gas loading terminals in the Middle East.
1. Ras Laffan, Qatar
This port on the northeast coast of Qatar overlooks the Arabian Gulf and is the world’s largest export facility for petrochemicals and hydrocarbons.
It lies within the Ras Laffan Industrial City and is strategically placed on the shipping route between the Far East and Europe.
The port spans 56 square kilometres and is designed to export LNG, LPG, condensates, petroleum products and sulphur, derived from the processing of gas extracted from the North Field Gas Reservoir.
There are 6 LNG berths, of which 4 can accommodate QMax ships with a 266,000 m3 capacity. The others can receive QFlex and conventional LNG carriers.
