Sila: Connecting Transport to One Network

By Ola Diab Sila is a new app, aiming to bring together the country’s transport modes into one network.

G

etting around Qatar has become almost seamless in recent years. It will soon be a lot easier once most of the road infrastructure is complete and even easier with the new and upcoming app, Sila, an integrated public transport system that makes planning your journey and payment a whole lot smarter.

improve and ease the use of the public transport network, in order to enhance the transportation process for citizens, residents and visitors. In the near future, it will activate the trip planning feature on the Sila app and its website, and this feature will allow transportation users to plan their trips in an integrated way.

The Ministry of Transport recently unveiled Sila, a brand that brings together Qatar’s transport modes into one network, in collaboration with transport providers such as Qatar Railways Company (Qatar Rail), Mowasalat (Karwa), Qatar Foundation and Msheireb Properties. By bringing together Qatar’s transport services, Sila aims to improve the accessibility of the country’s transport network.

The project also enables transportation users to look for the best routes and means of transportation that can be used and combined to reach their desired destination. The use of the Sila app and website also provides access to information on public transportation, parking and station locations, general layout of stations, flight schedules and routes.

Sila, which means ‘connection’ in Arabic, will be launched in phases. Currently, it includes the metro, bus, taxi and tram networks. When fully launched, Sila will include a series of projects and initiatives designed to give people the smartest choices for travel, including contactless payment, integrated payment through the Sila card, and the Sila journey planning app and website.

Other initiatives – which will be unveiled in the near future – include integrated and contactless payment methods, introducing new services and transport modes, and promoting the transport network through public awareness and marketing initiatives to reach a wider audience within Qatar.

Through the 'Sila' project, the Ministry of Transport aims to bring together the means of transportation operating in Qatar under one umbrella, and to

EMERGENCIES – AMBULANCE, FIRE OR POLICE – 999 For those considering driving licence applications, driving lessons, car hire, vehicle purchase or lease, and breakdown cover, all the relevant contact numbers are listed below. The rest of the Motoring section has more essential information, including test drives of selected models, car showrooms and service centres.

Vehicles drive on the right-hand side of the road, and seat belts are mandatory for both driver and frontseat passenger. Although measures have been implemented by the traffic department to help reduce the accident rate in Qatar, driving here can still be a hazardous affair and you need to remain fully aware and alert at all times when you are driving. Speeding, tailgating and sudden lane changing, especially near traffic lights, are common.

Useful Numbers

Be aware – radar! Be careful to keep your speed within the limits; there are cameras on most roads keeping watch on traffic speeds. Be especially careful at traffic lights as this is where most violations occur. The penalties, in financial terms, are strict: QAR6,000 for going through a red light and seven (black) points! See Traffic Violations in Motoring Essentials for more details.

Motorists should exert caution and watch out for cyclists or people stepping onto the road unexpectedly, especially at night. Conversely, be mindful if you need to cross the road on foot as it is easy to misjudge speeds of oncoming vehicles. Cars tend to move fast and unpredictably, except when in a traffic jam.

For convenience, use the Metrash2 app for a number of services, such as transfer of ownership, istimara (permit) renewal, and payment of violations.

Sit yourself and yours in the all-new Mitsubishi Xpander and you are all immediately impressed how spacious it is – and how comfortable it is. The seat fabric is really nice to the touch and, if you need them, there are seven seats in this practical, economical and comfortable SUV from Mitsubishi.

Another good point is the view – it's fantastic, panoramic indeed! Front, side and back, including the large mirrors, the view is great. Other controls, dials, switches and levers all are ergonomically convenient, well placed and within easy reach.

A special mention for the airconditioning. It is super cool in here, front, middle or back row. Really impressed with that (it was more than 40 degrees outside). Finally, the cabin is so practical. There's loads of cargo space with five seats but you can also have three rows with a total of seven seats and still space for luggage and stuff.

From the outside, the all-new Xpander looks surprisingly compact, but it does have good ground clearance, great for driving around Doha during this period of extensive road reconstruction.

You'll notice the wing mirrors fold flush when you walk away and lock your Xpander, and how well-finished the car is generally: Mitsubishi have always made quality, durable and tough cars.

Driving the all-new Xpander is a pleasure. Firstly the car is generally quiet with little engine or road noise. And in another nod to Doha-specific conditions, the car handles well, soft and forgiving when negotiating humps and bumps. On a very gusty and windy day I did not feel any effects at all – Xpander remained untroubled and very stable.

Xpander appeals because of its economy and practicality; it's great for new families and small businesses, people who need capability with flexibility – and without breaking the bank.

To be economical needs a small engine and this 1.5 litre powerplant is economical but with a big and willing heart. Without any fancy superchargers it will do whatever you ask, enthusiastically, churning out more power and smoothly changing up and down the gears for better acceleration. You can always keep up with the traffic, or your growing family, and stay within budget, with the Xpander.

The handsome style of the new XC90 Recharge Hybrid masks a technical masterclass, as Volvo again, with the addition of electric power, raises the bar for big SUV efficiency, comfort and safety.

Stunning when first unveiled, the world came to appreciate Volvo's design language, its innovation, its safety and its interior of quality. Many things are better with hybrid extra clean electric power, but nothing has changed elsewhere. Most people buy a Volvo to keep self and family safe today, so why not help take care of tomorrow as well?

You don't have to be a racer to enjoy the Recharge, the fastest XC90. It's just great to have instant extra power when needed and to be able to go to and from your daily commute emission free.

The interior is really great. Expensive-feeling materials and fabrics make you want to touch, like a silk scarf or a cashmere sweater. The clean and simple dashboard design exhibits elegant lines, and everything is pleasant to the touch. The open-grain wood reminds you of real nature, the dials and buttons provide satisfying clicks, and the buttery leather seats make sitting in traffic a scene of relaxation, not frustration.

The XC90 is shorter and narrower than some rivals on the outside but is better when it comes to legroom and headroom on the inside; the glass area is large and gives panoramic visibility.

Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are now standard.

Volvo’s Sensus infotainment system, which controls everything on a sharp and silky-smooth nine-inch centre touchscreen, puts out astounding sound from the Harman Kardon Hi-Fi system.

Volvo’s CleanZone system removes 95% of hazardous PM 2.5 particles and it seems to feel fresher inside than in the outside air.

Volvo is a leader not only in safety but also in semi-autonous driving including Volvo’s Pilot Assist driving technology with adaptive cruise control and blind-spot monitoring, among others.

Volvo is growing; its good design and quality, its respect for the environment, even improving it, and, most importantly, by proclaiming its vision that no one should be killed in or by a Volvo car.

Setting a new motoring success story, MG now introduce the MG GT, a beautiful all-new sports sedan, to liven up their range of SUVs and sedans, and it could indeed liven up your life!

MG’s success is mainly down to its extremely attractive range of compact sporty and large SUVs, in addition to their economical, spacious and comfortable sedans/saloons. ‘Attractive’ in this case means not only undoubted good looks, but also superb quality and comfort, plus the performance and, last but not least, the competitive prices.

MG is adding variety to its line-up with the allnew MG GT, and this beauty is a sleek, muscular fastback sports sedan ready to ignite your passions with many youthful new features, a delightful interactive infotainment system with two large crystal-clear touchscreens and, as befits its GT name, sparkling, dynamic performance enjoyed in luxurious comfort.

Maybe it was the bright yellow colour, but this coupé-like MG is a delight to see, to enjoy and to drive. The massive front ‘flaming’ grille and air intakes, the muscular shoulder line, the compact rear spoiler, they all scream sports and performance and the turbocharged engine, together with the sports-tuned chassis and the XDS dynamic control system, will all take you to your sports car ’nirvana’.

To emphasise, and it has to be said again, the level of quality of the beautiful MG two-tone and double-stitched leather seats and all-round trim materials was until recently only to be found on some very expensive cars… The same revolution applies to the level of technology employed by MG for both the safety systems and the infotainment connectivity. As easy as your phone.

An MG and a GT should deliver smooth, sporty performance and the all-new MG-GT doesn’t disappoint. From the moment you press the button to fire the engine you’ll be impressed. Apart from the responsive standing start, the most useful asset is the ability while cruising slowly, say around 40–50 kph, then to accelerate quickly to say around 80 or 100 kph. The MG GT is excellent here and it is very useful in escaping from heavy and slower traffic situations.

Yes, a really enjoyable and luxurious drive – MG GT.

Qatar's Green Transport for the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022TM

By Ola Diab Qatar is committed to delivering the world's first fully carbon-neutral FIFA tournament. One way in which it has sought to ensure carbon neutrality is through the transport sector.

A

long with hosting the first World Cup in the Middle East and Arab world, Qatar will stage the most compact edition of the tournament in modern history. Sixty-four matches over 28 days will take place in close proximity, with the maximum travel distance between stadiums just 75 km. One of the major environmental benefits of FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022TM is the elimination of domestic flights during the tournament.

Since Qatar first entered its bid to host the 2022 World Cup, the nation’s organising bodies have been vocal in their goal of delivering the world's first fully carbon-neutral FIFA tournament. One way in which it has sought to ensure carbon neutrality is through the transport sector.

To enhance Qatar’s efforts to organise a carbonneutral mega sporting event, over 1,100 electric buses will be deployed to transport spectators during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022TM Championship.

According to Director of Tarsheed and Energy Efficiency at Qatar General Electricity and Water Corporation (Kahramaa), Abdulaziz Ahmed Al Hammadi, the number of electric buses will be over 1,100 and about 700 electric charging stations

will be built for these buses, which will provide transport to spectators during the matches.

There are currently 20 car-charging stations are installed in Qatar, under the initiative of Kahramaa in coordination with other partners, to encourage motorists to buy electric cars. Electric car charging stations are available at Kahramaa’s headquarters in Al Thumama, Kahramaa’s building in Abu Hamour, Qatar Foundation (QF) and a few hotels.

After 2022, the new fleets will replace the old, helping Qatar to maintain their environmental commitment long after the tournament is over.

Qatar is committed not only to fulfilling its promise of carbon neutrality at the 2022 competition through sustainable building standards, renewable energy and low-emission solutions, and sustainable waste and water management practices. The nation is also devoted to ensuring that it leaves a legacy of environmental standards, expertise and technologies that benefit the country and region for many generations to come.

Other green transportation methods Mass public transport will help fans get around during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022TM. The Doha Metro, in addition to tram and bus services, will help fans travel seamlessly between hotels, stadiums and tourist attractions. The metro system will be the transportation backbone of FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022TM. It directly connects the airport with five stadiums, with the remaining tournament venues reachable via a combination of metro and bus services. The metro system is efficient, electric and utilises regenerative braking systems which help to reduce the carbon footprint.

In addition, all the metro stations are designed and operated under green building certification – ensuring their green credentials.

The Qatari electric vehicle strategy will also see Mowasalat (Karwa), the country's leading public transport service provider, working to electrify all taxis in the coming years. The company already operates numerous electric taxis serving Hamad International Airport (HIA).

destinations from metro stations. Qatar is also encouraging and promoting electric car use.

Kahramaa intends to install up to 500 charging points for electric cars by 2022. Though the city already has several charging stations in public parking and shopping centre parking facilities and around government buildings, further charging points will be located in residential areas and around stadiums, leisure facilities and parks.

Through the Public Works Authority (Ashghal) and the Ministry of Transport and Communications (MoTC), Qatar has also launched several projects in the last few years constructing cycle paths throughout the country to encourage people out of their cars and other modes of transport and on to bikes for a cheaper, healthier, more environmentally friendly travel option. Cycle tracks have been built around parks, along main roads and streets, around the new FIFA World Cup QatarTM stadiums, along promenades, and between municipalities. m

In addition, Mowasalat has tapped into natural gas resources, launching the region's first CNG-fuelled buses.

Qatar has also introduced a large fleet of electric scooters or e-scooters for short-term hire through several public and private companies such as Mowasalat’s Falcon Ride, Loop Mobility, wer2 and Fenix. These micromobility travel options offer an alternative to cars and taxis over short distances, including making connections between final ©

The procedure is simple; go to one of the registered driving schools in Doha and complete all the paperwork and receive instruction, if necessary, in the same place. Fees: Vehicles QAR250, motorcycles QAR150, valid for five years, for first time applications/renewals/replacements.

Some national driving licences are recognised as valid by Qatar and you need only take an eye test before you are issued with a valid Qatari licence and you are set to go.

In an effort to reduce traffic congestion, certain professions (approximately 240) will preclude you from gaining a licence. However, if you have the personal sponsorship of a Qatari national, or your spouse, then your profession is not important.

The police have offices in all the driving schools; you can also take your eye test there.

Holders of driving licences from some countries, eg the UK, France, Turkey, South Korea and Malaysia, can get a Qatari driving licence without a test. Take your Residence Card and original driving licence to the Traffic Department headquarters at Khalifa Street, Madinat Khalifa.

Drivers from other countries will need to enquire at the Traffic Department to check the validity of that home country's licence. Open daily (except Friday) 7 am – 11 am/4 pm – 7 pm. For more information, visit Hukoomi at gov.qa International licences You are allowed to drive with your national driving licence (if it is recognised by the State of Qatar) for one week only (seven days from arrival).

You can alternatively use an international driving licence for up to six months, after which it is

compulsory to have a valid Qatari licence. To use an international driving permit issued by your country of origin, you must also hold a valid driving licence that is recognised by the State of Qatar.

Temporary Qatari licences Residents or visitors who wish to drive for more than one week will need a temporary licence.

Obtaining a Qatari Driving Licence

PRINT and ONLINE

Apply in person at the Traffic Police office in one of the driving schools within seven days of your arrival in Qatar. You will need your valid national driving licence and passport along with copies, and three passport-size photographs with a white background. If you need to wear glasses while driving you must be wearing glasses in the photos. Fees: QAR10 for the card, QAR150 for the application.

You will also need to take an eye test, usually available at the driving school, and you may have to do a half course.

Temporary Qatari driving licences are valid for three months, but may be extended on application.

Holders of international and temporary licences are restricted to driving rental cars only. Driving without a licence of any kind is a criminal offence.

Converting a non-approved licence If your home country's licence is not considered valid by the authorities you will have to take a driving test. For those applying for a driving licence for the first time, as well as those who have to take a test: • The minimum age for learning to drive in Qatar is 18.

• You will need: four passport-size photos (with a white background), valid Qatar ID, an eye test certificate, and a copy of your sponsor company ID, plus a letter of permission from your sponsor.

marhaba.qa This includes female applicants sponsored by their husbands/men sponsored by their wives.

This step can now be done online using the Metrash2 app. Check up to date requirements when applying at the driving school.

• Complete an application form at a driving school (see Useful Numbers in this section).

Motoring Essentials

• If you are learning to drive for the first time, a full driving course will cost around QAR3,500.

These courses include 50 hours of driving lessons and 10 of theory.

• Drivers who have licences which cannot be directly changed to a Qatari licence can choose from a 'half course' (20 hours practical, 10 hours theory, QAR2,900) or a refresher course customised to your needs.

• There are separate courses for heavy duty vehicles and for motorcycles.

• There is a charge of QAR50 per test.

• All those who wish to get a licence must enrol themselves in either a half course or a full course.

• Licences are for manual or automatic cars.

If you hold a manual licence you may drive an automatic, but not vice versa.

• There is a unified driving curriculum and contract to be used by all driving schools.

The Driving Test To get your driving licence, you will have to pass the following tests: Theory test: A digital test; applicants need at least 18 correct from the 20 multiple-choice questions, many of which deal with traffic laws.

L (perpendicular) and P (parallel) parking: Tests taken on the same day, with the results given immediately.

The Traffic Department has completely automated the L and P parking tests, so there is now no room for any complaint of unfairness in evaluation from trainees. It is based on land sensors and surveillance cameras used inside and outside the vehicle.

Once you have passed your driving test, your driving licence will be issued while you wait. The vehicle licence fee for non-Qataris is QAR250, valid for five years. All transactions at the Traffic Department must be paid for using a credit/debit card, or the Ministry of Interior eCASH card (see Day to Day Qatar in the Living in Qatar section for more information about eCASH cards).

International Driving Licences To obtain an international driving licence you must be in possession of a valid Qatari driving licence.

Take this along with your passport, two passportsize photos and QAR150 to any reputable travel agency or driving school.

Getting Your Car or Motorcycle Tested for a Road Permit New private vehicles are issued with a registration valid for three years, known as istimara. Vehicles more than three years old must pass an annual inspection before the Traffic Department will renew the road permit.

Mandatory periodical vehicle inspections for all applicable vehicles must be done at a Fahes testing site. A map of Fahes stations can be found at fahes.com.qa, as well as details of how to prepare the vehicle and inspection tips, or call 800 3835, 4021 7777 Working hours: All stations except Mesaimeer: Sunday to Thursday 6 am – 6 pm (gate closes at 5:45 pm); Mesaimeer: Sunday to Thursday 6 am – midnight (gate closes at 11:30 pm). Try to avoid the busiest period (8 am – noon), and note that timings may change during public holidays.

Fees: Cars QAR150, motorcycles QAR100, by card only. Remember to take the expiring istimara.

Insurance: Renew prior to inspection, as there must be a full year's insurance on the vehicle before taking it for the istimara.

Road test: Once you pass your theory and parking tests, your examiner will take you out of the yard testing grounds onto the real road to test your proficiency. You may also be asked to do a hillstart before leaving the yard. In order to develop the highest standards of transparency and eliminate complaints from trainees who fail driving tests, smart cars have been introduced in some driving schools.

marhaba.qa Licence Renewals A driving licence may be renewed six months prior to or upon its expiry date. Renewal is easy and can be processed through Hukoomi at gov.qa, or via the Metrash2 app. The cost is QAR250, in addition to a QAR20 delivery fee, if applicable – the new licence can be delivered to you by QPost.

You must disclose any changes to your health that may affect your ability to drive since your last licence application. If, for example, you have been prescribed glasses, you should apply through the

The second five-year plan (2018–2022) was launched buoyed by the successful conclusion of the first five-year plan (2013–2017) of the Strategy, which saw the number of deaths on the roads reduced from 235 in 2013 to 178 in 2016.

The main causes of road accidents continue to be reckless and negligent driving, dangerous overtaking, illogical lane changing (especially at intersections), and using the phone while driving.

Road rage is a constant in Qatar. Motorists are warned to be aware of drivers ‘tailgating’ and flashing their lights to force the driver ahead to move out of the way, even if there is no space to safely move into. Drivers change lanes without signalling and often weave through the traffic, continuously changing lanes at high speed. You may experience bullying tactics including overtaking from the right and then slowing down as a 'punishment' to the driver who failed to move out of the way. In any of these situations, be aware of your own safety.

points and fines for speeding, parking violations and using a hand‑held phone while driving. These, and other measures for road traffic safety, are a priority for the government as part of Qatar National Road Safety Strategy 2013–2022.

Traffic lights flash on green before changing to amber and red. At the few roundabouts remaining in the country, signals will often flash amber for a short period of time to allow the flow of traffic – drivers should only pull out if it is safe to do so.

Metrash 2 Service Metrash is a free electronic service provided by the Ministry of Interior (MoI). Residents of Qatar can register to receive an SMS alerting them to traffic violations, driving licence expiry, car registration expiry, and inspection pass/fail.

Cameras and radars are installed at intersections to catch those who race through red lights. The installation of many more is planned, including sophisticated advanced radar systems which allow for the recording of accidents and booking of reckless drivers.

Under Metrash 2, citizens and residents can access a large number of MoI services, including traffic. The mobile phone number must be registered under the applicant’s name.

Smartphone users can download Metrash 2 on the App Store and Play Store, and the service can be activated via SMS or a Self Service Kiosk.

For assistance call 234 2000, visit moi.gov.qa Smartphone users can send photos of traffic violators directly to authorities via Metrash 2. To use, click on ‘Communicate with us’ and 'Contact us'. Enable GPS on your phone, select ‘Take photo’, write your comments and send.

Driving Conditions Traffic Law No 19 of 2007 introduced a system of tough penalties for traffic offences. They include ©

marhaba.qa The police have a number of cars fitted with mobile speed radars – difficult for motorists to locate, unlike permanent roadside speed radars.

In addition to speeding, the radars can also detect seatbelt violations, overtaking from the wrong side, and illegal usage of mobile phones.

Motoring Essentials

The Ministry of Interior stresses that its aim in deploying these mobile radars is to reform bad driving practices, thereby saving lives, and not simply to punish offenders.

Violations Traffic Law No 19 of 2007 introduced a demerit point system which will help to ensure safe driving (by curbing reckless driving) and to reduce traffic related accidents, deaths and casualties. Drivers convicted of certain driving-related offences will have what are termed 'black points' recorded on their records.

There are many offences listed on the Ministry's website ranging from paperwork and registration offences, pure driving offences, wrongful parking or obstruction-type offences, and many dealing with commercial vehicles.

• Obstructing traffic at intersections – QAR500 fine, 3 points • Parking/waiting at places reserved for persons with special needs – QAR300 fine, 3 points • Driving a vehicle without carrying driving licence – QAR500 fine, 1 point • Driving a vehicle without a valid permit (istimara) – QAR1,500 fine • Driving a vehicle without number plates – QAR3,000 fine, 3 points • Not moving vehicle to nearest safe area in case of an accident not involving injury, or not informing police immediately – QAR1,000 fine, 3 points • Applying tint to glass or windows of vehicle without permission – QAR1,000 To check violations registered to your vehicle, visit moi.gov.qa, or receive SMS alerts via Metrash2.

Some of the fines are draconian, like running a red traffic light. However, in some cases, if you pay within a month you may get a 50% discount – you can either visit the Traffic Department or use the Metrash2 app to check if this is applicable.

The points system means that your licence can be suspended or revoked, depending on the number of points accrued. In this situation, a new driving licence may be issued only after passing a new driving test after a minimum three months of suspension.

Always carry your driving licence and passport copy/Qatar ID with you while driving, as well as the vehicle registration, insurance documents, and car rental agreement (as appropriate).

Some of the more common violations include: • Running a red light – QAR6,000 fine, 7 points • Driving in the wrong (opposite) direction – QAR6,000 fine, 6 points • Driver and/or front seat passenger not wearing seatbelts – QAR500 fine • Using/holding a mobile phone/other device while driving – QAR500 fine • Allowing children under 10 to occupy front seats – QAR500 fine • Exceeding the maximum speed limit – QAR500– 1,000 fine, 4 points QATAR MOTORING E-GUIDE ©

There is a zero-tolerance policy on drink driving in Qatar – the legal limit is 0 mg. Drivers who are found to have alcohol in their system when breathalysed face fines of between QAR10,000 and QAR50,000, with a chance of a jail sentence and deportation.

Traffic Accidents Minor accidents If you are involved in a minor traffic accident within Doha city limits, you must move the vehicles involved to a safe place. Get the information of the driver of the other vehicle(s), ie name, ID number, car registration number, insurance details and mobile number, and take photos if necessary.

Drivers can avoid a trip to the Traffic Department by reporting the incident via the Metrash2 app. Any of the car owners involved can report the accident,

marhaba.qa giving their Qatar ID numbers, car registration numbers, and providing photos of the cars involved. Drivers also have the option of going to one of five traffic investigation offices at insurance companies.

Car Insurance Insurance coverage and claims Be aware that the terms and conditions of Comprehensive and Third Party insurance policies vary depending on the insurance company and underwriter, and that it is the car that is covered, not the driver – anyone with a valid Qatar driving licence can then drive the vehicle. Check the policy to ensure you are sufficiently covered in the event of an accident.

If your car is in the garage for over 15 days after an accident it is mandatory for insurance companies to provide a substitute car; this rule only applies to those cars waiting for genuine imported parts.

Breakdown cover may already be included on some insurance policies or can be added at an extra cost. Check with your insurance company.

See the list of insurance companies in Living in Qatar in the Discovering Qatar section.

Weather Conditions Dust storms occur due to shamal, dust-laden

Fog may occur between November and January and can drastically reduce visibility. Slow down and use dipped headlights and fog lights, if necessary.

Rain and thunderstorms can happen during the winter months, especially December and January.

Downpours may limit visibility, cause flooding on some roads, and make sandy areas muddy. Be especially vigilant during the first rainfalls of the season as any oil spills on the road make driving particularly treacherous.

Motoring Essentials

Major accidents If anyone is injured, none of the vehicles can be moved and the police are to be notified immediately (dial 999). You will be required to report, with your documentation, to the relevant traffic department – you will be advised which one by the attending patrol officers.

winds that can suddenly appear between March and August. They can compromise visibility on the roads, making driving extremely hazardous. Switch on dipped headlights – not fog or hazard lights – and drive slowly, using the centre line or the edge of the road as a guide.­

Beware of drivers using their hazard lights while driving in adverse weather conditions.

Petrol Stations and Other Services Qatar Fuel, also known as WOQOD, releases the fuel prices each month, as determined by Qatar Petroleum.

WOQOD stations, in addition to providing fuel, offer a wide range of services such as window cleaning, car washing and oil change; there is a convenience store (Sidra) and usually an internet café, ATM, Ooredoo payment machine, fast food and even a children's play area. Stations now cover the country, and you can pay by card or cash.

A few non-WOQOD stations may only provide fuel, but other small independent companies can easily be found for other services such as checking tyre pressure, repairing tyres (aptly named 'punctury'), oil and water levels, and car wash facilities. m
