The upstream production facilities cover the development of the Elk and Antelope onshore gas fields, including the well pads and the central processing facility.

In addition to the facility development, the project will also incorporate a carbon capture and sequestration scheme to remove CO2 from the field and reinject it into the reservoirs.

"Our strong history of working in Papua New Guinea combined with our diverse engineering capabilities stand us in good stead for the delivery of the continuing scope of work, which we will endeavor to be awarded," Clough executive vice president APAC John Galvin added.
