Qatar Chemicals 2016
February 22, 2016
Energy is power, and Qatar’s power comes from its abundance of cheap energy through its natural gas reserves. Attainment of the title as the largest exporter globally of liquefied natural gas (LNG) was made possible through the diligent efforts of Qatar’s government to develop the industry through the necessary infrastructure, capital investments, and foreign partnerships for the export market. Having established a world-class LNG export industry and local feedstock system, Qatar has begun to diversify its already rich economy by looking toward the downstream sector and has taken significant steps toward developing its industrial base, including chemicals and petrochemicals.

"Zambia indeed deterred many investors due to multiple policy shifts in the mining tax regime that showed no consistency. However, since 2021 and with a new government in place, we have seen more stability as well as investor-friendly policies."
