Recently the substructure of the Crux platform, located approximately 190 km off the Kimberley coast of Western Australia, set sail
US contractor McDermott was tasked with fabricating the jacket for the Crux platform.
The substructure is now enroute to the Crux field, located 620 kilometres northeast of Broome, where it will be securely anchored to the seabed with piled foundations.
The Crux development features a platform which will be operated remotely. An export pipeline will connect Crux to Prelude, which is approximately 160 kilometres southwest of the Crux field.
This connection will enable the delivery of liquefied natural gas to customers worldwide and is an example of us bringing to life our ambition to be the leading integrated gas and LNG business in the world.
