Doha, Qatar: Between January and February 2024, global LNG exports grew by 4% (2.74 million tonnes) y-o-y to 71.45 million tonnes (Mt), driven by GECF and non-GECF countries.
Qatar is among the top 10 LNG exporters in February 2024. The US was the largest LNG exporter in February this year, followed closely by Australia and Qatar, according to the monthly gas market report of March 2024 by Gas Exporting Countries Forum (GECF).
The global LNG exports were up marginally by 1% (0.35 Mt) y-o-y to stand at 33.95 Mt in February 2024. Both GECF and non-GECF countries supported the increase in LNG exports and offset weaker LNG reloads.
Non-GECF countries maintained its position as the largest LNG supplier globally, with a market share of 52.2%, up from 50.7% a year earlier.
The share of LNG exports from GECF member countries also increased from 46.7% to 47.1%, while the share of reloads declined sharply from 2.5% to 0.7%.
