Santos announced the first LNG cargo from Barossa LNG has been successfully loaded to the
Kool Blizzard. The cargo departed Darwin LNG on Sunday 25th January and will be delivered to the
Sakai terminal in Japan on a delivered ex-ship basis.
Santos is the operator and has a 50 per cent interest in the Barossa Gas Project, with joint venture
partners PRISM Energy International Australia (37.5 per cent) and JERA Australia (12.5 per cent).
Santos Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer Kevin Gallagher said today’s announcement
marks a major milestone for Barossa LNG, with Santos delivering the project within approximately six
months of the planned start date and within the original budget – without drawing on the additional
contingency.
Mr Gallagher said, “This is an outstanding achievement for a project of this scale and complexity in the
global offshore upstream sector. It demonstrates Santos’ self-execution capability in delivering major
development projects and the success of our disciplined, low-cost operating model.
