From Reuters:
Chevron’s massive Gorgon liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility in Australia has hit technical difficulties, a spokesman said on Monday, resulting in a temporary suspension of exports less than a month after it started first production.
Chevron’s $54-billion project began producing LNG for export on March 7, but has since encountered mechanical problems at a cooling unit that prevents the plant from chilling natural gas for exporting on tankers.
“We are working through some mechanical issues with the propane refrigerant circuit on train 1 at the Gorgon plant site,” a Chevron spokesman said.
