The plan shows the importance that Qatar attaches to the localization of the energy sector, and is expected to add an investment of 15 billion Qatari riyals (4.12 billion dollars) in local economy, said a statement by QP.

QP signed the contracts with Baker Hughes, Schlumberger, which recently celebrated 70 years of presence in Qatar, and McDermott, for oil services.
