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)
