June 12 (Bloomberg) -- Royal Dutch Shell Plc, Europe’s largest oil company, said it expects the first production from a proposed liquefied natural gas project in Australia’s Queensland state as early as 2014.
"Shell is in talks with Arrow and others to buy additional gas to support the project, it said. Coal-seam gas is mostly methane found on the surface of coal. The gas can be extracted when pressure on the seams is reduced, usually by removing water. LNG is natural gas chilled to liquid form for transport by ship to destinations not connected by pipeline."
