Start date: July 2018
Location: Browse Basin, NW Australia
Source: National Offshore Petroleum Safety and Environmental Management Authority, accessed: 2020-01-05
Gas to undergo preliminary processing on an offshore central processing facility (CPF) to remove water and raw liquids, including the greater part of the condensate. Condensate pumped to the interlinked floating production, storage, and offtake facility (FPSO) with hydrocarbon processing and monoethylene glycol (MEG) regeneration capabilities. The FPSO will have a condensate storage capacity of more than 1,000,000 barrels (approx. 137 000 m3) and will transfer the condensate to tankers for export to overseas markets. The gas will be transferred from the CPF via an 889-km-long gas export pipeline (GEP) to an onshore processing plant at Bladin Point in Darwin.

2025 – Papua LNG – Total
Start date: uncertain as final agreement yet to be reached for expansion of PNG LNG processing site.
Location: Papua New Guinea
The Papua LNG project of Total seeks to deliver gas from wells in Papua New Guinea’s highlands close to those that are already producing for PNG LNG project. The intention is to process the gas at the PNG LNG processing plant (operated by Exxon) that would expand from two trains to five trains and so more than double production to around 15 million metric tonnes per year. While Total has achieved agreement for extraction of gas the government and Exxon continue to discuss terms for the expansion of the processing plant. (source: Natural Gas World, accessed 2020-01-03)
