Inpex receives carbon-neutral LNG from Ichthys
Inpex Corp on July 10 announced it had received the shipment of carbon neutral LNG at its Naoetsu LNG terminal in Japan from Ichthys LNG project in Australia. The shipment marks its first offtake of carbon-neutral LNG.
The carbon footprint of the LNG shipment was offset using carbon credits in an arrangement with Ichthys partner TotalEnergies. The credits were applied to greenhouse gas emissions across the project’s entire natural gas supply chain including upstream production, liquefaction, transportation, regasification, marketing and combustion by customers in Japan, Inpex said. Total has a 26% stake in the 8.9mn mt/yr Ichthys LNG project, which is operated by Inpex.
