Jan 31 (LNGJ) - Origin Energy, a shareholder in the Australia Pacific coal-seam-gas-to-LNG project, said its quarterly E&P business output was 29 petajoules equivalent and sales revenue amounted to A$198 million. APLNG, Origin's joint venture with ConocoPhillips and Sinopec of China, continued to reach milestones with the project, with Origin noting the deal with Kansai Electric for the sale of around 1 million tonnes per annum of LNG for 20 years. Origin Chief Executive for Upstream, Paul Zealand, said: "Production for the December Quarter was 29 PJe, compared with 31 PJe in the prior corresponding period," due to planned maintenance shutdowns.
