Qatari prime minister says Doha will resume full energy supply when conditions stabilise

CAIRO, March 9 (Reuters) - Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani has said that Doha will resume providing full energy supplies when regional conditions stabilise, the foreign ministry said on Monday.

"We remain firmly committed to our clients and the stability of global energy markets, but current circumstances, including attacks on our facilities and challenges to maritime navigation in the Gulf, necessitate temporary measures to protect the safety of personnel working on our energy infrastructure," said the prime minister, who is also foreign minister.

Qatar, which accounts for about 20% of global exports of liquefied natural gas, declared force majeure last week, ceasing LNG production as the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran rages.
