Ichthys LNG Project completes project financing arrangements

Posted 18 December 2012

INPEX CORPORATION (INPEX) is pleased to announce today that the INPEX-led Ichthys LNG Project has finalized arrangements for US$20 billion in project finance* loans including those with eight export credit agencies (ECAs) and 24 commercial banks (ECAs and commercial banks are referred to as “Lenders”). 

The Ichthys project financing is the biggest project financing ever arranged in the international financial market. 

INPEX is committed to recognising and respecting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples whose cultures have existed in Australia for more than 65,000 years.

In particular, we acknowledge the Larrakia people as the recognised Traditional Owners of the land and waters where Ichthys LNG onshore facilities are located, in addition to the Whadjuk Nyoongar people on whose lands our Perth office is situated. Furthermore, Broome and Djarindjin are important logistical locations for transit of our offshore workforce, and we therefore extend our acknowledgement to the Yawuru, Bardi and Jawi peoples, respectively.

INPEX acknowledges the important role Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples continue to play in the development of our business in Australia and pay our respects to their Elders – past and present.
