$Hydraulic fracturing - QGC$

It is with a sense of excitement that I join the QCLNG Project at this key period of development. Evidence of the project’s progress can be found everywhere you look across the broad variety of activities underway from the Port of Brisbane, out west to the gas fields, up north on Curtis Island and at scores of points in between. The project teams have achieved some important milestones in recent weeks and with so much going on we want to increase the frequency of our communications to share developments on the project with our key stakeholders. This newsletter will be issued regularly from this month to provide key updates on each aspect of the project as well as related news on QGC’s activities in the community. Notable achievements in May include the awarding of more than Contents Message from Mitch Ingram $335 million in contracts to local suppliers, the commencement of construction on the Gas Collection Header Receipt Station and the completion of our logistics base at Miles, which will deliver essential infrastructure support for the QCLNG Project in the gas fields, where construction continues apace on our field compression stations and central processing plants. With the materials offloading facility nearing completion on Curtis Island, anticipation is building for the first deliveries of the modules that will form the LNG processing facilities, scheduled for mid year. In the midst of so much activity we are maintaining our priority focus on safety, for staff, for contractors and for the environment and communities in which we operate. QGC is increasingly active in rolling out the safety and community support initiatives associated with the QCLNG Project. Looking ahead we will be sharpening our focus on delivery, ensuring we achieve key targets in accordance with the project timelines we have put in place. There will be many more advances to report on as we go about delivering one of Australia’s largest capital infrastructure projects. I look forward to keeping you up to date on our progress and sharing the many highlights on the path to achieving the world’s first CSG to LNG cargo.

QCLNG PROJECT Key facts Queensland Curtis LNG involves dozens of communities, hundreds of businesses and thousands of people drawn from throughout the state, the rest of Australia and internationally. Our plans for this major, integrated project, involve: • Expansion of QGC’s exploration and gas production in the Surat Basin. • A 540 km buried natural gas pipeline network linking the gas fi elds to Gladstone. • Two processing units, known as LNG MAP trains, at Curtis Island. These trains, which have a design life of at least 20 years, will produce a combined 8.5 million tonnes of LNG a year. • The site can accommodate an expansion to 12 million tonnes of LNG a year, subject to demand.Construction began late in 2010, with fi rst LNG expected in 2014. • The LNG plant will occupy less than 1% of Curtis Island and will be separated from public areas by an environmental protection zone. • QGC’s existing operations produce about 20% of Queensland’s domestic gas demand. QCLNG is underpinned by BG Group global LNG sales agreements for almost 10 million tonnes a year with the China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC); Tokyo Gas; GNL Chile; Chubu Electric and the Energy Market Authority of Singapore. In addition CNOOC has acquired 5% of certain QGC tenements and 10% of one of the first two LNG trains and Tokyo Gas has acquired 1.25% of certain QGC tenements and 2.5% of QCLNG Train 2. Page 4
