Foster Wheeler AG, under the auspices of the Foster Wheeler WorleyParsons (FWW) joint venture, congratulates Woodside on achieving LNG production and first cargo at its Pluto LNG Project in Australia.

FWW was responsible for the engineering, procurement and construction management of the onshore portion of the project which comprises a single LNG processing train with a forecast production capacity of 4.3 million tonnes of LNG per year.

"Foster Wheeler is proud to be associated with Pluto LNG, which has involved application of specialist skills in modular design and construction," said Kent Masters, Chief Executive Officer of Foster Wheeler AG. "The Pluto project has been a continuation of the successful FWW joint venture, first formed in 2005 for the North-West Shelf Project Phase V LNG Expansion, and we are looking forward to further opportunities for this proven partnership."
