Foster Wheeler and WorleyParsons and KBR are expected to complete the FEED studies in the second half of 2010. Including the dual contracts, Woodside’s total costs for the FEED phase are estimated to be $A100-150 million.
The Pluto Gas Field initial project phase includes a single LNG production train at the Burrup LNG Park with forecast production of 4.3 million tonnes per annum. The train will be connected via a 180 kilometre, 36 inch offshore pipeline to a platform in 85 metres of water, which in turn will be connected to five subsea big bore wells on the Pluto field. A second and third LNG train are expected to be added, in addition to a domestic gas facility for the Western Australian market.
The Pluto Gas Project is located on the Burrup Peninsula, Western Australia.
