Qatar

Qatar has big gas reserves and market trends for that commodity are very promising. That applies particularly to natural gas which has been liquefied for shipment to Asia and the USA.

The Middle East is one of the regions regarded by StatoilHydro as interesting in terms of future business opportunities.

The office is located in a business centre where a number of international companies are based.
