Notes
Multiple news reports from March 2026 indicate Iran conducted attacks on Gulf energy infrastructure, with QatarEnergy CEO stating attacks wiped out 17% of Qatar's LNG capacity for up to five years. Laffan Refinery 1 is located in Qatar and would be affected by these attacks on Gulf energy facilities.
What coverage reports
These are counts of what publishers filed about this plant, not an operating status. A quiet month means nobody named this facility that month, which is a fact about coverage and not about the plant.
