Gorgon Project

About Gorgon Project

The Gorgon Project is one of the world's largest natural gas developments and the biggest single resource project in Australia's history.

The Gorgon Project is operated by Chevron Australia Pty Ltd (Chevron Australia), an Australian subsidiary of Chevron Corporation, and is owned by a joint venture comprising Chevron Australia (approximately 47 per
 – more... cent) and Australian subsidiaries of ExxonMobil (25 per cent), Shell (25 per cent), Osaka Gas (1.25 per cent), Tokyo Gas (one per cent) and Chubu Electric Company (0.417 per cent). The project involves the joint venture partners developing the Greater Gorgon Area gas fields, located about 130 kilometres off the north-west coast of Western Australia, and constructing on Barrow Island a 15 million tonne per annum LNG plant and a domestic gas plant with the capacity to provide 300 terajoules per day to supply gas to Western Australia.

Chevron Australia and its joint venture participants have contracted the Kellogg Joint Venture - Gorgon (KJVG) to design the LNG plant, the domestic gas plant and related infrastructure, to procure all the necessary equipment and materials, and to manage the contractors and subcontractors during project construction and commissioning. KJVG is a joint venture between Kellogg Brown & Root, JGC Corporation, Hatch and Clough. KJVG manage this official recruitment site.

A resource project the size of Gorgon will help position Australia as a leading gas producer and generate a new source of wealth for Western Australia and the nation. It will support regional economic growth and energy security for up to 40 years. Importantly, the project also creates opportunities for employment and local businesses. – less
