Chevron’s Gorgon LNG project in Australia continues to make steady progress toward first liquefied natural gas, and is 80 percent complete with start-up expected in mid-2015, George Kirkland, Chevron’s vice chairman said at the company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders in Midland, Texas.
Almost 6,000 people are working on constructing this massive LNG project, which includes the construction of a 15.6 million tonne per annum LNG plant on Barrow Island.
Wheatstone LNG project, the company’s second LNG project in Australia, is now almost 35 percent complete and remains on schedule for a start-up in 2016, Kirkland added.
