PERTH (miningweekly.com) – The $24.7-billion Australia Pacific liquefied natural gas (APLNG) project, offshore Queensland, has started LNG production at its Curtis Island facility.

ASX-listed Origin Energy reported on Friday that the project remained on track to export its first cargo by the end of the year.

“With first LNG production, APLNG has now achieved its last major milestone prior to exporting LNG to customers in Asia,” said Origin CEO for integrated gas David Baldwin.

“The Origin-operated upstream activities, which deliver gas to Curtis Island, are fully operational and performing well, and Origin, along with partners ConocoPhillips and Sinopec, are now focused on achieving first export.”

The APLGN project comprises two processing trains, each with a 4.5-million-tonne-a-year nameplate production capacity.
