Chevron's Gorgon LNG export terminal in Western Australia has resumed full production after a month-long outage caused by a mechanical fault in a turbine.

Chevron has successfully restored full production at its Gorgon liquefied natural gas LNG export terminal in Western Australia following a month-long outage. The mechanical fault in a turbine, which caused the disruption, has been resolved, allowing the affected production train to resume operations. Despite the outage, the remaining two production trains and the domestic gas plant continued to operate at full capacity, ensuring ongoing supply and mitigating broader market impacts.

Gorgon LNG is operated by Chevron, which holds a 47% stake in the joint venture, with Exxon Mobil and Shell each holding 25%. The project includes three LNG trains with a combined production capacity of 15.6 million metric tons per year. This incident at Gorgon follows a series of technical and labor challenges at Chevron's Australian LNG facilities.
