Shell plc and PetroChina Co. Ltd. are moving ahead with plans to develop the second phase of the Surat Gas project in Queensland, Australia.
Arrow Energy, a joint venture formed by the companies in 2010, would develop the onshore project in the eastern part of the country. Phase 2 would produce 22,400 boe/d, or about 130 MMcf/d of natural gas.
Those volumes would be used to feed the 8.5 million metric tons/year Queensland Curtis LNG (QCLNG) facility near Gladstone, as well as domestic customers in the region. Arrow signed a 27-year gas supply agreement with QCLNG in 2017.
