Case Study: Ichthys LNG Project
Principal Project Components
• USD34bn capex budget
• The upstream facilities comprise around 50 subsea production wells and
subsea production systems connected to a Semi-sub central processing
facility and FPSO
• Gas will be transported to the LNG plant at Darwin via an 889km, 42” subsea pipeline
• Once transported to Darwin the gas will be processed at the onshore LNG
Facilities.
• The project is designed to produce approximately 8.4mtpa of LNG from two
trains, up to 100,000 bpd of field and plant condensate and up to 1.6mtpa
of LPG at peak, with First LNG is scheduled for 2016

Conclusions
 The future of Australian oil & gas is bright.
 CBA remains committed to the sector.
 Oil prices remain high against historical, domestic gas
prices are rising – the economic settings are stable.
 The conventional gas fields in central Australia are
enjoying a renaissance.
 7 LNG projects will shortly begin producing in 2014
and ramp up into 2017.
 International players continue to invest and support
the Australian oil & gas industry.
 We could do with finding some more oil though.
Ichthys LNG Project – Project Financing
Largest ever project financing transaction
Inpex (Japan) and Total SA (France)
are the major partners in the Ichthys
LNG project which raised USD20bn
of project financing and reached
financial close in January 2013
CBA is the largest non-Japanese
lender
CBA is the Intercreditor Agent and
Uncovered Sub-Facility Agent
Largest Project Finance Deal

Project sponsor engagement with Export Credit Agencies (ECA) commenced during 2010
– over two years ahead of financial close

The financing process commenced in November 2011 when lenders provided preliminary
RFPs. Banks provided final credit approvals in June 2012 and Financial Close was
reached in January 2013, eight months after receipt of the formal RFP

Significant debt amount – USD20bn the largest ever project financing

Multi-lender engagement strategy (ECAs, banks and sponsor debt, and provision for
bonds)

Banks lent USD10.2bn to the project (USD4.8bn Uncovered (47%) and $5.4bn (53%)
Covered)

3 ECAs directly lent USD5.8bn, and Sponsors provided loans of USD4bn
Strategically aligned Sponsors group (Inpex 66%, Total 30%), with Total being a well
credentialed LNG developer and operator

The liquids rich conventional gas resource delivers strong project economics

Committed off-take arrangements from ten buyers, 68% going to Japanese buyers,
Sponsors buying 21%

Robust project finance structure with contracted senior sponsor support in various forms
