Australia LNG output seen hitting 130 million mt/year

摘要

Sydney—A new wave of LNG projects could lift Australia’s total LNG capacity to as much as 130 million mt/year by 2035, more than five times the current processing capabilities. Seven major LNG projects currently under construction in Australia are expected to raise the nation’s capacity from around 24 million mt/year to more than 80 million mt/ year by 2017. The projects, worth more than A$175 billion ($182 billion), look set to make Australia the world’s biggest producer of LNG, ahead of current leader Qatar’s 77 million mt/year.
