The more trains at a gulf LNG plant the more profitable it is. Why build two when you can build three. With that I do think that it makes the most sense to just expand png LNG with train 3,4,5 and have participation in that. Most economical and speediest.
I agree, Cyber, with the possible exception that it may make more sense to simply concentrate on building a greenfield 3 or more train LNG plant for the IOC partnership.
I see roughly a one, possibly 2 year time difference between expanding at PNG LNG versus our own LNG plant.
Unless Exxon et al can match the ownership of the LNG plant to the IOC partnership, I believe it is simply best to build our own.
