Shell Plc said on Sept. 19 it has resumed producing and shipping LNG from its Prelude floating LNG (FLNG) facility, nearly a month after the oil and gas major and workers' unions reached a wage deal.
In late August, Shell and unions representing workers at the floating facility off northwest Australia reached the deal, ending a long-running strike that had shut down the 3.6 million-tonne-a-year facility in July and halted LNG supplies.

The cargo shipment is the facility's first in two months.
"The enterprise agreement has now been supported by a majority of employees in a formal vote and is expected to come into effect in early October 2022," the London-based oil and gas major said.
