LNG Carrier “Zarga”
"Zarga"
The Nakilat owned Q-Max LNG Carrier “Zarga” with a capacity of 266,000 cbm will be used to ship LNG produced by Qatar Liquefied Gas Company Limited (4), known as Qatargas 4 (shareholders: Qatar Petroleum and Royal Dutch Shell), to markets primarily in the North America, People’s Republic of China, and Dubai.
The Q-Flex and the even larger Q-Max are a new generation of LNG mega-ships. The Q-Max has 80 percent more capacity than conventional LNG carriers with about 40 percent lower energy requirements due to the economies of scale created by their size and the efficiency of the engines. Q-Max LNG carriers are unique and purpose built for Nakilat and allow for more efficient transport of Qatar’s natural gas to markets throughout the world.
