MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA: Shell Australia, an Australian subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell plc, confirmed that its Prelude floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) facility has arrived in Australian waters.
Prelude is the first deployment of Shell’s FLNG technology, that will see a 488-metre-long floating facility extracting and liquefying the gas at sea before it is exported to customers around the globe. The project is located approximately 475km north-north east of Broome in Western Australia.
The Prelude project will employ 260 local workers on board the facility during operations and create over 1500 jobs during the hook-up and commissioning phase of the project, the company said.
“The arrival of the Prelude FLNG facility signalled a new era for the Australian LNG export industry, with the first floating liquefaction facility deployed in local waters. This is a clear demonstration of Shell’s long-standing commitment to investment and development in Australia – delivering significant economic benefits to the nation,” said Zoe Yujnovich, chairman, Shell Australia.
