Pluto LNG nearing completion

摘要

The huge Pluto LNG Project offshore Western Australia, now over 80% complete, has received a boost from a series of contracts at the end of 2009.Approved by Woodside in mid-2007, the development of the Pluto and Xenia gas fields in the Carnarvon Basin includes five subsea large bore wells producing to a shallow-water production platform 27km away. Gas will be transported from the fixed platform in an 85m water depth through 180km of pipeline to an onshore LNG plant at Dampier on the Burrup Peninsula. The initial single-train LNG processing facility, in the new Burrup LNG Park, will have a production capacity of 4.3mtpa, as well as an export jetty and storage facilities.
