Exxon and its partners, including Oil Search Ltd. (OSH) and Santos Ltd. (STO), are considering expansion of the development to tap Asian demand. Exxon is focused on exploration to underpin an expansion rather than trying to obtain gas from InterOil Corp.’s Elk and Antelope gas discoveries, Autin said.

The cargo has been sold on the spot market to Tokyo Electric Power
Company Inc. (TEPCO). This follows the commencement of LNG production from the first train in April and
from the second train in May.

Looks like both trains are up and running now also. That sure suprised me.
