SINGAPORE, Oct 7 (Reuters) - Maintenance at the North West
Shelf liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant is ongoing, a spokesman
for operator Woodside Petroleum said on Monday.
The Australian company had initially scheduled maintenance
for Sept. 5 to Oct. 1.
"An integrated turnaround campaign is being undertaken at
the North West Shelf Project," the spokesman said.
He said that maintenance involves LNG Train 5,
Fractionation, the North Rankin Complex and North Rankin Train 2
but declined to say when it is expected to be completed.
It was not immediately clear if the maintenance had been
extended or delayed.
"If there is any material impact to Woodside's 2019
production guidance, it will be communicated in line with our
market disclosure requirements," the spokesman said.
The six stakeholders in the North West Shelf LNG project are
BHP Plc, BP Plc, Chevron Corp, Japan
Australia LNG, Royal Dutch Shell Plc and Woodside.
