Ichthys LNG Project

Abstract

Ichthys LNG project is a large-scale LNG project operated by INPEX CORPORATION, the first Japanese operator of a world class LNG project. The Ichthys Gas-Condensate field is located about 200 km offshore Western Australia - more than 800 km south-west of Darwin, Northern Territory. Water depth is approximately 250 m. The Ichthys LNG project is comprised of three mega projects with offshore facilities, gas export pipeline and onshore LNG facilities. Production capacity of Ichthys LNG project is approximately 8.9 MTPA of LNG and approximately 1.65 million tons of LPG per year, along with approximately 100,000 barrels of condensate per day at peak. Production of gas from the wellhead commenced in July 2018, and the project commenced shipment of condensate and LNG in October 2018, and LPG in November 2018. Production ramp-up has been progressing very well. INPEX will continue to work toward achieving safe and stable production, and contribute to a stable supply of energy in Japan and Asia region.
