DUBAI/DOHA, March 19 (Reuters) - Iran’s attacks on Qatar have damaged facilities that produce 17% of the company’s liquefied natural gas export capacity and it will take three to five years to repair them, QatarEnergy CEO Saad al-Kaabi told Reuters in an interview on Thursday.

"I never in my wildest dreams would have thought that Qatar would be - Qatar and the region - in such an attack, especially from a brotherly Muslim country in the month of Ramadan, attacking us in this way," he said.
