Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated the underlying fiscal challenges that the GCC governments were facing. The transition to carbon neutrality, as well as investments in renewables from significant areas, such as the European Union and China, have lessened the long-term forecast for fossil fuel consumption. This chapter looks at these developments with regard to Qatar, its LNG sector, and its growth potential in the blue ammonia sector. It argues that blue ammonia will serve as a key transitional fuel as part of the energy transition and will increasingly become a strategic growth area for Qatar’s energy sector.
