BP Sells 5% Stake In Australia's Newest $35 Billion LNG Project By Tsvetana Paraskova of OilPrice.com BP will sell 5% in the $35-billion Browse LNG project in Australia, which Australian energy giant Woodside is looking to progress, the UK-based supermajor told Reuters on Monday. BP is selling the 5% stake, out of its total of its 44% interest, to South Korea's GS Energy. “The dilution reflects BP’s disciplined approach to portfolio management by bringing in a committed partner,” BP said in a statement emailed to Reuters. The Browse LNG project in Australia, proposed by Woodside Energy, entails the Browse to North West Shelf (NWS) Project to deliver natural gas from the Calliance, Torosa, and Brecknock fields to the existing Karratha Gas Plant. The Browse project proposes to connect the natural gas fields via a 900-kilometre pipeline , connected to two floating production storage and offloading facilities, while a CCS solution has been incorporated into the offshore design. Production capacity at Browse is planned to be 11.4 million tonnes per annum (LNG, LPG, and domestic gas) and a peak condensate production rate of 50,000 barrels per day. The project is currently in the concept definition phase, and key activities continue in support of progress towards front-end engineering and design entry, Woodside said last month. Woodside is the operator of the project with a 30.6% stake in the Browse Joint Venture. Before the BP-GS Energy deal, the British major held 44.33%. The sell-down will reduce BP’s interest in the joint venture to 39%. Japan Australia LNG (MIMI Browse) Pty Ltd and PetroChina International Investment (Australia) Pty Ltd were the other shareholders in the joint venture before GS Energy joins the project with the 5% stake acquired from BP. The Browse LNG project may have good chances to pass all pre-development and pre-construction stages in the coming years as Australian and Asian energy demand is rising, while the Middle Eastern crisis has created new...

Congo reopened the main airport in the eastern province hardest hit by Ebola, after health officials reported tentative signs the outbreak may be slowing despite a continuing struggle to trace exposed contacts and investigate suspected cases. The airport in Bunia — the capital of Ituri province — resumed operations immediately after health authorities determined that screening and surveillance measures were sufficient to manage travel risks, the Democratic Republic of Congo’s transport ministry said in a Monday statement posted on social media. Passengers will undergo temperature screening before departure and arrival. Authorities are increasingly focusing on how to sustain transport links, health-care services and outbreak operations during what could be a lengthy epidemic. Vaccine developers are racing to bring three experimental Bundibugyo vaccines into human testing , while health officials expand treatment and coordination capacity in Ituri. Read More: What to Know About Ebola as Fears of Spread Grow The outbreak has caused 321 confirmed infections and 48 deaths across 23 health zones in the country’s east, according to a situation report released Monday. Authorities were actively monitoring only 43% of identified contacts, less than half the target rate of 95%, while 47 laboratory samples remained awaiting analysis. The report described Logo as a newly affected health zone, bringing the total number impacted in Ituri province to 15. While health officials said “the current evolution of the disease shows a decrease in community transmission,” they cautioned that the data remain incomplete. Separately, officials are assessing facilities in Bunia that could house the national Ebola response coordination center , part of an effort to strengthen management of an outbreak that has spread across multiple provinces, Congo’s National Institute of Public Health said.
