Qatari liquified natural gas (LNG) producer RasGas has been struck by an unknown virus that took its website and email servers offline last week.

RasGas stated last week that it had identified the virus on Monday. "Operational systems both onsite and offshore are secure and this does not affect production at the Ras Laffan Industrial City plant or scheduled cargoes," the company stated.
