Qatar’s growth story over the coming years is increasingly shaped by two parallel forces: expanding LNG
capacity and steady momentum in non-oil sectors.
This chart highlights how these engines interact. Oil activities show a sharp acceleration from 2026
onward.
At the same time, non-oil activities grow at a more moderate but consistent pace, contributing stability
across the cycle.
Together, these trends lift overall GDP growth, shown by the upward-sloping line toward the medium
term.
The key message behind the title is balance. LNG remains a powerful driver of headline growth, but non-
hydrocarbon sectors play a critical role in smoothing volatility and sustaining momentum beyond energy
cycles.
For investors in Qatar, this composition matters. Strong oil-linked growth can improve fiscal and
external balances, supporting macroeconomic stability.
Meanwhile, resilient non-oil growth signals broader economic depth and opportunities that are less
exposed to commodity price swings.
The combination points to an economy where near-term acceleration is supported by LNG, while
diversification efforts strengthen the medium-term outlook.
Understanding how these components move together helps investors better assess risk, timing, and
sector exposure in Qatar’s evolving growth landscape.
