Vacancy at BP

BP

Tangguh LNG Project, approved in Q1-2005, is one of the most complex projects in BP’s portfolio and is one of the 5 major New Profit Centres in BPs growth strategy. The development involves tapping offshore gas fields, with proven resources of 14.4 tcf, and producing liquefied natural gas (LNG) in the Bintuni Bay area of the province of Papua (formerly called Irian Jaya).

The Tangguh LNG Facilities will comprise two offshore production platforms linked by two sub-sea pipelines to an onshore LNG Facility which is being constructed on a greenfield site on the south shore of Bintuni Bay in Papua. This location provides good sea access, stable soils and ample area for future expansion. The LNG plant will be a complete grassroots development including all ancillary facilities required to be self-supporting. Two liquefaction trains will be constructed initially, with each train having LNG production capacity of 3.8 mtpa. Storage and loading facilities will be provided for export of LNG and gas condensate products by marine tankers. Utility systems providing electricity, steam, water, and other plant needs will be constructed to meet daily plant requirements.
