Australian LNG exports to increase by a further 7% from debottlenecking
Report summary
We expect once Australia's recent wave of LNG plants are successfully up and running, operators will look at opportunities to maximise the value for their investment, including by releasing additional capacity through debottlenecking. Debottlenecking could increase Australia's total LNG export capacity by 7% to 91 mmtpa, and deliver up to US$4.9 billion to industry (NPV10, long-term Brent US$70/bbl).
Table of contents
