Both the companies announced in April that they would acquire Suncor Energy gas business in Canada for CAD1bn ($986m), after signing an agreement in 2011 to search for assets across the world.
The companies bought assets in Canada, which have not produced enough gas, in order to build an LNG export terminal.
QPI chief executive Nasser al-Jaidah was quoted by Reuters as saying that the company is planning for upstream business in the US, which includes oil and gas, but specifically in gas.
"With everything happening in the US today we are trying to register a position," Jaidah added.
"We are hoping to extend the Centrica deal in North America, through acquisitions and other means."
