Taiwan imported its first Ichthys LNG cargo from Australia, the country's state-owned CPC Corp said on Nov. 26.
The cargo was shipped on the LNG tanker Pacific Breeze after loading from Ichthys LNG plant on Nov. 16, according to data from Refinitiv Eikon.
It arrived at the CPC-owned Yung-An LNG terminal in Kaohsiung, Taiwan on Nov. 26, the data showed.
The $40 billion Ichthys project shipped its first condensate on Oct. 1 and its first LNG in late October, after being delayed several times.
Japan's Inpex Corp holds 62.245% of Ichthys and France's Total has 30%, with the rest spread among CPC Corp and Japanese utilities Tokyo Gas, Osaka Gas, Kansai Electric, JERA Corp and Toho Gas.
