The PNG LNG project is one of the world’s largest resources projects. Led by Exxon Mobil, the other partners are Oil Search, the PNG Government, MRDC, AGL, Santos and Nippon Oil. The project proposes to commercialise the Hides, Angore and Juha fields and the associated gas resources in the operating fields of Kutubu, Gobe and Moran in the Southern Highlands and Western Province. 

The gas will be treated at a gas conditioning plant at Hides and then transported via pipeline to a 6.3 million tonne per annum LNG liquefaction plant and storage facility located some 20k NW of the capital Port Moresby.
