The vessel, ordered by Eni, is expected to double LNG production at Eni’s project offshore Mozambique to 7 mtpa when it goes online in 2028.
For more than a century, LSU has shaped petroleum engineering education, but few assets showcase its impact like the PERTT Lab. With six deep test wells and rare reservoir-depth gas-injection capabilities, the facility is helping drive breakthroughs in well control, CO₂ injection, and next-generation energy technologies.
Woodside’s $12-billion gas project offshore Western Australia is expected to produce up to 8 mtpa once it’s complete.
