system, one of the world’s largest greenhouse gas mitigation projects ever undertaken by industry.
“ is achievement is the result of
strong collaboration across industry and governments and supports our objective of providing a ordable, reliable and ever-cleaner energy essential to our modern lives.
Williams added: “We are monitoring system performance and plan to safely ramp up injection volumes over the coming months as we bring online processing facilities.”
Once fully operational, the carbon dioxide injection facility will reduce Gorgon’s greenhouse gas emissions by about 40%, or more than 100mn tonnes over the life of the injection project.
e Gorgon facility incorporates many leading design features aimed at maximising energy e ciency and minimising greenhouse gas emissions.
In steady-state operations, Gorgon is anticipated to have the lowest greenhouse gas emissions intensity of any LNG project in Australia.
