The INPEX-operated Ichthys LNG Project started shipment of LNG as the first shipment left the onshore gas liquefaction plant in Darwin in the Northern Territory of Australia, heading to the INPEX-operated Naoetsu LNG Terminal in Niigata Prefecture, Japan.

The Project is planned to increase its production volume of LNG, and produce about 8.9 million tons of LNG per year, which is more than 10% of Japan’s annual LNG import volume, when it reaches its production peak.

70% of the LNG produced by the project is scheduled to be supplied to Japanese customers, while the project will also start the shipment of LPG after  LNG.

The Ichthys LNG Project involves LNG lifted from the Ichthys Gas-condensate Field offshore Western Australia at an onshore gas liquefaction plant constructed in Darwin, Northern Territory, and producing and shipping approximately 8.9 million tons of LNG and approximately 1.65 million tons of LPG per year. The Ichthys LNG Project is expected to be operational over a period of 40 years.
