Gladstone LNG Project - Fisherman's Landing
Gladstone LNG Pty Ltd (GLNG), which is a subsidiary of the publicly listed Australian company Liquefied Natural Gas Ltd, proposes to develop a mid-scale liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant at Fisherman's Landing Wharf (FLW) near Gladstone. The proposal has an expected life of 25 years and the first stage would produce up to 1.5 million tonnes of LNG per year. A proposed second stage would double the capacity within three years of Stage 1.
A natural gas liquefaction plant and associated infrastructure and facilities would be built at FLW. Wharf loading facilities at FLW No. 5 would be upgraded. Coal Seam Gas (CSG) would be sourced from gas fields operated by Arrow Energy NL via the proposed Central Queensland Gas Pipeline. The CSG will be liquefied, stored and loaded onto vessels for export.
