Shell Plc suspended production at a floating liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility off the west coast of Australia after a fire broke out, tightening fuel supplies to Asia right as winter starts to boost consumption.
The “small fire” at the Prelude LNG facility was detected and was “quickly contained using a hand-held extinguisher,” Shell said in a statement. “Production has been temporarily suspended and an investigation into the cause of the incident is underway.”
