TEPCO will also acquire an equity share in the Wheatstone fields and a percentage of Chevron’s share in the Wheatstone downstream processing facilities.

The foundation phase of the Wheatstone project will consist of two LNG trains with a combined capacity of 8.9 million tonnes per year and a domestic gas plant.

Chevron Australia managing director Roy Krzywosinski said that the project had completed the front-end engineering and design phase and that the firm will make a final investment decision this year.
