pro-Iran Qatar

Qatar and Iran also share management of the world's largest gas field, South Pars, in the Persian Gulf.

Because Qatar supports Jihadi's and is close to Iran partially because of proximity to oil/gas reserves. It probably was judged as unimportant. There is a conflict between various interests in the region about supplying Natural Gas and oil to the EU. They all want the EU to be dependent upon their supply, it is a question of who will actually deliver it and what path will pipeline take.
