01FEB2019 - NEWS - Liquified natural gas exports of Australia fell during last month due to Gorgon train shutdown

Liquified natural gas exports of Australia fell in January due to lower production from an LNG plant and a bout of hot weather, pushing exports below rival Qatar. Monthly exports from Australia, which overtook Qatar as the world’s top LNG exporter last November, dipped 6.5 percent from December to about 6.26 million tonnes of the super chilled fuel. Australia’s exports have grown rapidly following the start-up of new projects. The Gorgon train shutdown was the main reason for the drop in Australian LNG exports.
