BG Group starts commercial operations from QCLNG Train 2 in Australia

BG Group says that commercial operations began from the second train at its Queensland Curtis LNG (QCLNG) plant. QGC, BG Group’s Australian subsidiary, has also assumed control of Train 2 from Bechtel Australia, which built the facility. BG Group now has full control of both LNG trains and associated facilities at QCLNG. By mid-2016 the integrated project is expected to reach plateau production, producing enough LNG to load around ten vessels per month combined which is equivalent to exporting around eight million tonnes per year.
