Inpex's Australian Ichthys LNG on track for Jul-Sep startup despite gas production delays
The Ichthys LNG project in Australia remains on track for first LNG by the end of September, despite recent upstream production delays, a spokesperson with project operator Japan's Inpex said Wednesday.
Inpex was expecting to start producing gas by mid-June, the company said in late May, with first shipment of condensate, LNG and LPG cargoes targeted by the end of September.
"Currently, the project is conducting final safety verification in preparation for the introduction of gas into the LNG facilities," the Inpex spokesperson said. "The introduction of gas from the wellhead is schedule to commence soon."
Ichthys is set to become Australia's largest condensate project, with a production capacity of 100,000 b/d condensate and 1.6 million mt/year of LPG.
