Chevron achieves first LNG production at Wheatstone

Chevron started producing LNG at the Wheatstone project in Western Australia in early October. At full capacity, the project’s two-train facility will supply 8.9mn t/y of LNG for export to customers in Asia. The LNG facility processes natural gas from the Chevron-operated Wheatstone and Iago fields in which it holds an 80.2% stake.

The Chevron-operated Wheatstone LNG facility is a joint venture between Australian subsidiaries of Chevron (64.14%), Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company (Kufpec, 13.4%), Woodside Petroleum (13%) and Kyushu Electric Power Company (1.46%), together with PE Wheatstone, part owned by JERA (8%).
