Description

Description

The Greater Sunrise gas fields, estimated to hold five trillion cubic feet of gas and over 200 million barrels of condensate, are planned to be developed with gas piped to a newbuild LNG plant in Timor-Leste. The plant is expected to produce five million tons of LNG per year in the 2030s. A cooperation agreement has been signed between the Ministry of Petroleum and Mineral Resources of Timor-Leste and Woodside to conduct commercial and technical studies to finalize the investment case for the new greenfield LNG plant. The project also includes plans for a domestic gas facility and a helium extraction plant. Negotiations on fiscal, regulatory, and legal frameworks are ongoing, with a target for first LNG as early as 2032-2035, subject to approvals.
