Prelude FLNG Facility
At the heart of our East Browse gas portfolio is Prelude. The Prelude FLNG facility produces natural gas from an offshore field approximately 475km north-north east of Broome in Western Australia.
Prelude is a multi-decade project and will require backfill gas to maximise its operating life, the first of which will be Crux.
