In a historic achievement, the United States topped the list of the world’s largest exporters
of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in 2023, surpassing Qatar and Australia.

U.S. LNG exports reached 91.2 million metric tons last year, up 22% from 2022.
This increase was driven by several factors,
including the restart of the Freeport LNG facility in Texas and rising global demand for LNG.

On the other hand, Qatar’s LNG exports fell by 1.9% in 2023 to 85.7 million metric tons.
This decline was due to several factors, including rising production costs in Qatar and lower demand from Asian markets.

Australia ranked second on the list of the world’s largest LNG exporters in 2023,
with exports of 80.9 million metric tons.

Analysts expect the United States to continue to lead the global LNG market in the coming years,
as it has competitive advantages such as abundant resources and low production costs.
