Flipping from United 1k to to 1world

So ive searched and have not found the answer i was looking for

So here is the scenario

I currently live in the US (houston) and fly 12 round trips a year to Baku, Azerbaijan for rotation in the O and G community.

I just got approved to spend all my offtime overseas, and have picked Thailand for the first year...

Since im 1k on united, and would most likely being using Qatar to get from Azerbaijan to BKK.... what are my chances of getting an equal elite status on Qatar?

I want it mainly for the miles and ability to use the Elite lanes at various airports in Southeast Asia.. I am not concerned about the flights from Baku to BKK because i fly business/ first with my company paid flights.. But i know how much of a hassle some airports can be with no elite status.

Thanks

Thomas
