Darwin LNG Project AUSTRALIA

The Darwin LNG Project is a gas processing and liquefaction facility in Darwin, Australia.
Darwin LNG originally processed and liquefied gas produced from the Bayu-Undan Gas Field, located 250km off the southern coast of East Timor and 500km off the coast of Darwin, Australia.

As gas producion from Bayu-Undan ceased in 2023, life extension works were completed at the Darwin LNG facilities so they could be re-used, upon start up again in 2026, to process gas from a backfill project—Barossa.

The original Darwin LNG Project marked the first time a Japanese electric power company participated in the entire LNG chain of events from gas development and production to liquefaction, transportation, regasification, consumption, and sales.
The project was transferred from TEPCO Fuel & Power to JERA in July 2016.
