The idea of creating a forum as an official organization was first performed at the meeting in 2001 in Tehran, but it was legally instituted after the idea was supported by Russia. Vladimir Putin, on a visit to Qatar, the largest gas-producing country, reached an agreement with the Emir Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani to coordinate activities in the gas sector.
