LNG

Oct 10 (LNGJ) - Australian LNG exports fell last month to 4.2 million tonnes (63 cargoes) from 5.1MT (76 cargoes) in the previous month of August, according to monthly estimated from consultants EnergyQuest. Western Australia’s plants shipped 2.4MT in September, down from 3.4MT in August, due in particular to lower Gorgon and North West Shelf output. “Notwithstanding political pressure to reduce exports, Queensland LNG projects shipped two cargoes more than in August with a total of 1.8MT,” said EnergyQuest.
