ADNOC’s XRG has expanded into Australian LNG with a $1.45-billion deal to acquire Shell’s stake in the North West Shelf project, per ogj.com.

Shell Australia will sell its 16.67% interest in the North West Shelf for the same amount, Bloomberg reports.

The acquisition marks a significant shift in Australia's energy landscape as ADNOC strengthens its global LNG presence, according to indexbox.io.

Fortescue’s recent ammonia-powered bulk carrier trial in Western Australia highlights the region's growing role in green energy innovation, miningweekly.com notes.
