Gas is extracted from fields in Hela Province, conditioned at the Hides facility, piped approximately 700 kilometers to the liquefaction plant at Caution Bay near Port Moresby, and then exported via tankers primarily to Asian markets. Production began in 2014, and the project has consistently delivered strong operational performance, including first-quartile greenhouse gas intensity.

It also supports local economic development through extensive national content programs, employing a workforce that is over 90 percent Papua New Guinean and investing in training, education, health, and supplier partnerships. The PNG LNG Project stands as the largest private-sector investment in Papua New Guinea's history, valued at around US$19 billion at inception, significantly contributing to the nation's energy exports and economic growth.
