In Australia and Timor-Leste our exciting portfolio includes the Australia Pacific LNG facility in Queensland, Bayu-Undan gas-condensate field in the Timor Sea, and the Darwin LNG facility in the Northern Territory. We also have exploration and appraisal projects in northern Australia including the Greater Poseidon, Caldita-Barossa and Greater Sunrise fields.
