BP puts $1b Kwinana hydrogen and clean fuel projects on ice

The Darwin LNG plant has processed gas from the Bayu Undan field in Timor Leste waters since 2006. Santos plans for gas from the Barossa field to supply the plant mid-decade after Bayu Ubdan production has stopped.
Australian LNG producers are under pressure on emissions and decommissioning, and Santos wants to tackle both problems in one swoop at Bayu Undan, but it needs everyone to play along.
Santos and ENI are looking for solutions for CO2 and removing old facilities in the waters north of Darwin. Time will tell if the problems are solved or just delayed.
