Name of the Project
Scarborough gasfield development.

Location
The project is located 330 km off the shore of Australia.

Client
Woodside (75%) and BHP (25%).

Project Description
The project has a contingent resource of 7.3-trillion cubic feet and supports recovery of volumes of more than 500-billion cubic feet per well.

Woodside is proposing to develop the Scarborough resource with 12 subsea, high-rate gas wells tied back to a semisubmersible platform moored in 900 m of water.

The estimated 20 000 t topside has processing facilities for gas dehydration and compression to transport the gas through an estimated 400 km pipeline to the Woodside-operated Pluto liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility.

The composition of the Scarborough gas is well suited to the Pluto LNG plant, which is designed for lean gas and nitrogen removal.
