Shell Schedules First Gas From Prelude FLNG Project In 2016
Published: 11-Oct-2009
Royal Dutch Shell Plc's (Shell) Prelude floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) plant is scheduled to commence initial production in 2016 with an estimated production life of 25 years. The project, located offshore Western Australia state in the Browse basin, has an estimated operational life of 25 years. Annual production is estimated to peak at 3.6 million tonnes of LNG, 1.3 million tonnes of condensate and 0.4 million tonnes of liquefied petroleum gas.
Front-end engineering and design (FEED) for the project is expected to begin in the second half of 2009 with the financial investment decision (FID) scheduled for early in 2011. From the FID it will take approximately five years for the FLNG facility to be constructed and then towed to location. Whilst the facility is being built, the subsea production wells will be drilled and the infrastructure installed in time to supply gas to the FLNG facility on its arrival at the field.
