Mülheim, Germany-based large-diameter pipe manufacturerEUROPIPE GmbH has successfully extended its reach to Australia, where it has been contracted to supply the main part of a major offshore project, the Ichthys LNG (liquefied natural gas) Project.
The Ichthys Project will transport natural gas from the Ichthys Field (in the Browse Basin, Timor Sea, Western Australia) to on-shore LNG plant at Darwin, Australia, via an 889-km sub-sea pipeline. The gas will be liquefied in one of the world’s largest LNG facilities and shipped mainly to Japan.
