Qatar exports over 77mn tonnes for LNG annually , more than Malaysia and Australia combined , with 29.9 % of the market share globally . As of December 2016 , the LNG production in Qatar has been provided by one entity , Qatargas . This followed the announcement that that Qatargas would be fully integrated with Rasgas which , according to Qatar Petroleum in April 2018 , will save the company $ 550mn annually in operational costs . Production under the new Qatargas began in early 2018 , with integration fully complete . Qatargas currently operates 14 LNG trains , helping make the country the largest LNG producer in the world .
