Qatargas will supply 1.3 million tonnes a year of liquefied national gas (LNG) to Pakistan for 20 years, with the first cargo expected to be delivered in 2018, the world's biggest LNG exporter said in a statement.
Under the terms of the agreement with Pakistan's Global Energy Infrastructure Limited, Qatargas can increase the volume to 2.3 millions tonnes per annum.
In February Pakistan said it had signed a 15-year agreement to import up to 3.75 million tonnes of liquefied natural gas a year from Qatar, a major step in filling Pakistan's energy shortfall.
