Brunei LNG Begins Restart After Operational Disruption
(Reuters) — Brunei LNG said on Friday it is in the process of a safe startup of its liquefied natural gas facility, which is expected to continue until further notice, following an "operational upset" earlier this week.
The public may observe visible flaring and elevated noise levels from its plant, but those are controlled and expected, the oil and gas producer said in a social media post.
"Brunei LNG internal designated teams are focused on (the) safe start-up of Brunei LNG's plant."
On Wednesday, the company said it was managing an "operational upset" at its facility in the coastal Belait District and working towards a full recovery.
In both its statements, it did not specify what caused the issue and the plant shutdown.
The company is 50% owned by the government of Brunei, and the rest is split equally between Japan's Mitsubishi Corp. and Shell.
Its LNG plant has a capacity of 7.2 million metric tons per year.
