Qatar ‘to consider selling gas in euros’

QATAR, the world’s largest shipper of natural gas, will consider selling gas in euros, instead of dollars, HE the Finance Minister Yousef Hussain Kamal said, reducing global demand for the US currency.
Qatar would consider selling gas in euros if a customer requested a “special contract,” Kamal, who is also in charge of the Economy and Commerce Ministry, said in an interview in Doha yesterday.
Qatar’s willingness to sell gas in euros “depends on how much we have to have different currency allocations in our portfolio,” he said.
