MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) – The partners in the giant Gorgon gas project off the coast of western Australia will seek approval to add a third processing plant to boost production of liquified natural gas, Chevron Corp. said Monday.
The partners, Chevron, Royal Dutch Shell PLC, Exxon Mobil Corp., this year won approval to build two 5 million metric ton (5.5 million ton) a year liquefied natural gas processing plants, or trains, on Western Australia state’s remote Barrow Island, but will now seek approval for a third, taking total output to 15 million tons a year.
“Developing three LNG production trains in quick succession improves project economics and addresses mounting industry cost pressures”, said Scott Walker, a Chevron spokesman.
The Gorgon partners plan to submit an environmental assessment for the third train to the state’s Environmental Protection Authority in early 2008.
The third train will be built within the approved 300 hectare development sight for the project and Chevron said it expects very little change to the environmental impact of the project.
Chevron said in the next 12 months the partners will work to secure approvals, commence front-end engineering and design work and boost the project team with the possibility of early works on Barrow Island.
Australia’s federal government defied opposition from conservation groups and the state environment agency and approved the project, despite concerns that it will disturb the habitit of an endangered species of marine turtle.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
