Report summary
The Prelude FLNG is a floating LNG facility around 220 kilometres off the coast of Western Australia. The Prelude FLNG was one of the world's first large-scale (over 1.5 mmtpa) FLNG facilities. It has a design capacity of 3.6 mmtpa of LNG, 0.4 mmtpa of LPG, and 1.3 mmtpa of condensate. The Prelude FLNG project comprised of both the FLNG facility and the Prelude field subsea development. FID was taken in 2011, and the first LNG cargo was shipped in 2019. The FLNG is supplied with feedgas from the Prelude field. Crux is the primary backfill for the Prelude field and is expected to come onstream in 2027. The Bratwurst and Concerto gas fields will likely be future backfills. Crux, Bratwurst, and Concerto are all owned and/or majority operated by Shell. The Concerto field lies on the same licence as Prelude and its potential development is covered by this report.
