Ichthys Onshore LNG Facilities Project (Train 1, 2)

Strengthening relations between Australia and Japan

INPEX-operated Ichthys LNG is one of the largest and most complex oil and gas developments in the world. It incorporates some of the world’s biggest and most advanced offshore facilities off the Western Australian coast, massive onshore processing facilities near Darwin, and an 890 kilometre pipeline to unite them.

JKC Australia LNG is the engineering, procurement supply, construction and commissioning contractor for the Ichthys Project Onshore LNG Facilities. JKC is a joint venture between JGC Corporation, KBR and Chiyoda Corporation.

The onshore scope of work for Ichthys LNG included the construction of two LNG processing trains, product storage tanks, a product loading jetty, a module offloading facility, a combined cycle power plant, utilities, permanent building facilities and an accommodation village.

Ichthys LNG received Major Project Facilitation status from the Australian Federal Government and strengthened relations between Australia and Japan.

Chiyoda along with its joint venture partners JGC Corporation and KBR, are internationally renowned companies responsible for building LNG plants.

After receiving gas from the offshore processing facilities via a gas export pipeline, Ichthys LNG onshore processing facilities in Darwin produce four products:
· Liquefied natural gas (LNG)
· Propane
· Butane
· Condensate, a liquid that is used in the petrochemical industry and refineries.
