Market price is perhaps a misnomer. It's like Boeing and Airbus selling planes at a discount to the list price. No one pays retail :p
Qatar hasn't spent billions of dollars to dramatically increase its gas output to not sell gas to people. The national budget is straining under the weight of the world cup infrastructure needs (hence the increase in petrol prices, hiring freezes at QP and drastic cost cutting across government departments).
