Oil and Minerals Minister Ameer al-Aidrous said on Saturday that the first export of Yemeni liquefied natural gas will start in 2009. Upon
his return home coming from France, al-Aidrous said to Saba that 80
percent of the liquefied Gas project in Yemen has been accomplished and
concerning the Balhaf gas station, 95 percent of the project's pipe
was almost accomplished. During his visit to France,
al-Aidrous chaired a meeting of Yemen Liquefied Natural Gas Company
which concluded its activities last Wednesday in the capital Paris. "It
is supposed the project's last phase will be finished soon and the
exportation of gas will be in the first months of 2009", said
al-Aidrous. The three-day meeting was attended by representatives of world companies and banks which have some shares of the project.
