Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh looks on during the inauguration ceremony for the liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant in the southeastern port of Balhaf November 7, 2009. Yemen dispatched its first liquefied natural gas (LNG) shipment on Saturday from a $4.5 billion Total-led plant, as the leader of the violence-torn country sought to soothe security concerns. The first shipment left the export terminal at Belhaf for South Korea aboard a Korean tanker, carrying around 149,000 cubic metres of LNG.
