During this initial engineering phase, the technical and financial feasibility of the proposed 6.6-million-tonne-per-annum (mtpa) liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant will be assessed.

The phase is expected to be complete in the first half of 2024 and will be followed by the start of pre-front-end engineering and design.

Tamboran Resources managing director and CEO Joel Riddle said: “Our partnership with Wood in Darwin aligns perfectly with Tamboran’s commitment to working with top-tier companies including APA Group (pipelines), Helmerich & Payne (drilling), bp and Shell (LNG), to ensure a seamless and high-integrity new LNG development brought to market as quickly as possible.

The contract scope covers the study of the proposed three-train concept, the selection of LNG liquefaction technology including the review of renewable-powered e-drives, infrastructure for carbon capture and storage, site configuration, and preliminary cost projections.

Wood executive president of consulting Azad Hessamodini said: “Working together with Tamboran, we are bringing our global LNG expertise and experience to help realise this important project for Australia and the wider region.

“Leveraging our industry-leading expertise in decarbonisation and digitalisation, we will help ensure that the NTLNG development becomes a leading producer of low-emissions LNG.”

Last month, Tamboran signed two non-binding LNG supply agreements with bp and Shell.

As per the agreement, bp and Shell will each buy up to 2.2mtpa of LNG, which will be supplied from the NTLNG project.
