The Q-Max or the Qatar Max is the largest liquefied natural gas (LNG) carrier class in the world.
The name Q-Max refers to the maximum size of tankers capable of docking at the Ras Laffan terminal in Qatar.
A typical Q-Max gas tanker is 345 m (1,132 ft) long, 53.8 m (177 ft) wide, and 34.7 m (114 ft) in height, with a draught of 12 m (39 ft).
The Q-Max has a cargo capacity of 266,000 cubic meters (9,400,000 cu ft),
 According to estimates, this amount of fuel can light up 70,000 U.S. homes for one year. 
Prior to Q-Max, Q-Flex ships were the largest LNG carriers with a maximum capacity of 217,000 m3 (7,633,283 cu ft).

Billion cubic metres of natural gas (abbreviated: bcm) or cubic kilometer of natural gas is a measure of natural gas production and trade. Depending of implied standards, this measure may represent different value of energy content.
According to the standard defined by the International Energy Agency, it corresponds in average to 38.2 petajoules (1.06×1010 kWh) of energy  in the case of Russian natural gas and
41.4 petajoules (1.15×1010 kWh) of energy in the case of Qatar's natural gas.[1]

According to the standard defined by the International Energy Agency, the gas physical volume is used, which is measured at the temperature of 15 °C (59 °F) at atmospheric pressure. According to the Russian standard, the gas volume is measured at 20 °C (68 °F).
That means that 1 billion cubic metres of natural gas by the International Energy Agency standard is equivalent to 1.017 billion cubic metres of natural gas by the Russian standard.[1]

Some other organizations use an energy equivalent-based standards. BP uses a standard which is equivalent to 41.87 petajoules (1.163×1010 kWh) per billion cubic metres.
 Cedigaz uses a standard which is equivalent to 40 petajoules (1.1×1010 kWh) per billion cubic metres.[1]

2.5 million tonnes per year of LNG, equivalent to about 350 million cubic feet per day ; IF 10 LNG plants were built by Salof then one is ~= 0.25 mtpy, ~= 35 mmcfpd

Australia’s LNG export capacity increased from 2.6 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) in 2011 to more than 11.4 Bcf/d in 2019.
Australia’s DIIS forecasts that Australian LNG exports will grow to 10.8 Bcf/d by 2020–21 once the recently commissioned Wheatstone, Ichthys, and Prelude floating LNG (FLNG) projects ramp up to full production.
Prelude FLNG located offshore in northwestern Australia, was the last of the eight new LNG export projects that came online in Australia in 2012 through 2018 as part of a major LNG capacity buildout.
Starting in 2012, five LNG export projects were developed in northwestern Australia: onshore projects Pluto, Gorgon, Wheatstone, and Ichthys, and the offshore Prelude FLNG. The total LNG export capacity in northwestern Australia is now 8.1 Bcf/d, EIA noted.
In eastern Australia, three LNG export projects were completed in 2015 and 2016 on Curtis Island in Queensland—Queensland Curtis, Gladstone, and Australia Pacific—with a combined nameplate capacity of 3.4 Bcf/d. All three projects in eastern Australia use natural gas from coalbed methane as a feedstock to produce LNG.
Most of Australia’s LNG is exported under long-term contracts to three countries: Japan, China, and South Korea. An increasing share of Australia’s LNG exports in recent years has been sent to China to serve its growing natural gas demand. The remaining volumes were almost entirely exported to other countries in Asia, with occasional small volumes exported to destinations outside of Asia.
For several years, Australia’s natural gas markets in eastern states have been experiencing natural gas shortages and increasing prices because coal-bed methane production at some LNG export facilities in Queensland has not been meeting LNG export commitments. During these shortfalls, project developers have been supplementing their own production with natural gas purchased from the domestic market. The Australian government implemented several initiatives to address domestic natural gas production shortages in eastern states.
Several private companies proposed to develop LNG import terminals in southeastern Australia. Of the five proposed LNG import projects, Port Kembla LNG (proposed import capacity of 0.3 Bcf/d) is in the most advanced stage, having secured the necessary siting permits and an offtake contract with Australian customers. If built, the Port Kembla project will use the floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) Höegh Galleon starting in January 2021.

Given the growing role of gas in India's rising energy consumption, Singh said the country's regasification volumes would likely
 rise to 250-260 million cu m/day by 2030 -- the equivalent of nearly 70 million mt/year -- from about 150-160 million cu m/d at present. "
And if there's any optimism that runs along with it, it could grow to 325 million cu m/d," he added.
