The project will be developed using a subsea gas gathering system, which will be tied back to the Wheatstone Platform.

Gas will be exported from the platform to the onshore LNG facility via a trunkline. First gas production and LNG start-up is expected in 2015.

Chevron holds a 64.14% stake in the project, while Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company holds a 13.4% interest.

Apache and Kyushu Electric Power own 13% and 1.46% stakes repectively, while PE Wheatstone holds an 8% stake.

About 80% of the project’s foundation capacity will be fed with natural gas from the Wheatstone and Iago fields. The remaining 20% of gas will be supplied from the Julimar and Brunello fields.
