Wheatstone LNG

Wheatstone LNG is a liquefied natural gas plant operating in the Ashburton North Strategic Industrial Area, which is located 12 kilometres (7.5 mi) west of Onslow, Western Australia. The project is operated by Chevron. History The Wheatstone gas field was discovered in the Greater Gorgon Area in 2004. The final investment decision was made in September 2011, and construction began in December 2011. The first shipment was made in October 2017. As of late March, 2026, from damage "likely caused by Tropical Cyclone Narelle," the Wheatstone and Gorgon gas facilities, which "collectively produce about 6.5% of the world’s liquefied natural gas and nearly half of Western Australia’s domestic gas supply, according to Chevron", were offline in what was already a challenging time in world energy markets. Technical description The project is expected to cost A$29 billion (US$29.7 billion). The LNG liquefaction and export plant will have an annual capacity of 15 million tonnes of LNG. In the first stage, the plant will have a gas plant, and two LNG trains with a capacity of 4.3 million tonnes per year each. It will be supplied from the Wheatstone, Iago, Julimar and Brunello offshore gas fields. Contractors Front-end engineering and design works of the project are being performed by three companies. Bechtel is undertaking the design of the onshore gas plant. Intecsea, a subsidiary of Worley, is designing the subsea infrastructure and trunkline. And Technip is designing the offshore processing platform. Geotechnical consultation for the design and construction of the LNG plant and associated infrastructure will be provided by Golder Associates. Liquefied natural gas storage and condensate tanks to be built by a joint venture between Thiess and EV LNG Australia,, a subsidiary of Vinci. Ready-for-startup operations support services will be provided by ODL, a subsidiary of Wood Group. The operability, reliability and maintainability contract was awarded to Clough AMEC. Developer Chevron owns 72 percent of the project. Shell owns 6.4 percent of the project; Woodside Energy owns 13 percent, Kufpec Australia, a subsidiary of the Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company, owns 7 percent; and Kyushu Electric Power owns 1.6 percent of the project. Exports 3.1 million tonnes of LNG per year will be exported to Tokyo Electric. Korea Gas Corp. (KOGAS) will buy 1.5 million tonnes per year. Tohoku Electric and Chubu Electric will each buy 1 million tons per year. 300,000 tonnes per year will be exported to Kyushu Electric. See also Browse LNG Gladstone LNG References
Вітстоун ЗПГ

Вітстоун ЗПГ (Wheatstone LNG) — завод із зрідження природного газу, споруджений в середині 2010-х років на північно-західному узбережжі Австралії. Завод є частиною масштабного проєкту, що також розробку включає офшорних родовищ Вітстоун, Лаго (на них припадає 80% сировинної бази), Джулімар та Брунелло. Доставка ресурсу забезпечується газопровідною системою Вітстоун/Джулімар – Вістоун ЗПГ. Для розташування заводу обрали ділянку у 12 км на захід від Онслоу, при цьому враховуючи масштабність проєкту та слабкий рівень освоєння оточуючої території, на першому етапі будівництва спеціально під проєкт спорудили аеродром Онслоу зі злітною смугою довжиною 1900 метрів. Проектна потужність заводу становить 8,9 млн.т ЗПГ на рік (12,5 млрд.м3), що забезпечують дві технологічні лінії, які стали до ладу в 2017 та 2018 роках. Для зберігання основної продукції призначено два резервуари об'ємом по 150 000 м3. Крім того, для вилученого із «жирного» газу конденсату споруджено два резервуари по 120 000 м3. Відвантаження продукції здійснюється через винесений у море на 1,2 км причал, що здатний забезпечувати обробку як ЗПГ, так і конденсату. Крім того, передбачили захищену хвилеламом гавань для буксирів. В межах проекту здійснили днопоглиблювальні роботи із вибіркою 26 млн м3 матеріалу, для чого залучали фрезерний земснаряд "Ambiorix", землесосні снаряди "Brabo", "Breydel" та "Gateway", ківшеві земснаряди "New York" та "Postnik Yakovlev" (також працювали землевідвізні шаланди "Sloeber", "Pagadder", "Trinidad", "Santiago", GL-501, GL-502). Ще одним залученим судном стало каменеукладальне "La Boudeuse". Окрім виробництва продукції для експорту, комплекс також постачає певну кількість блакитного палива для внутрішніх потреб через газопровід Вітстоун – Дампір-Банбері. Енергетичні потреби комплексу обслуговує власна ТЕС Вітстоун ЗПГ. Загальна вартість проєкту (включаючи облаштування офшорних родовищ) оцінювалась у 29 млрд доларів США, проте у 2016 році була збільшена до 34 млрд. Проєкт реалізував консорціум у складі американської Chevron (64,14 %), KUFPEC (Kuwait Foreign Petroleum Exploration Company, 13,4 %), австралійських Woodside (13 %) та PE Wheatstone Pty (8 %), а також японської Kyushu Electric Power Company (1,46 %).

White City Stadium (Sydney)

White City Stadium at the White City Tennis Club was a tennis venue in Rushcutters Bay, Sydney, Australia. The stadium was built in 1922 on the former site of Sydney's White City amusement park as a new venue for the New South Wales Championships (now an international tournament known as the Sydney International). The venue served as host of the tournament until the Sydney Olympic Park Tennis Centre opened for the 2000 Summer Olympics. The club was formed in 1947, and today has 8 synthetic grass courts. The White City tennis complex has fallen into disrepair with the old stadiums and the grass courts which hosted famous matches no longer usable. The Australian Tennis Museum was located at White City from its founding in 1983 until 2005 when it moved out to Sydney Olympic Park Tennis Centre. Famous tennis matches and tournaments Davis Cup White City was host to some of Australia's Davis Cup championships during their dominant run in the 1950s and 1960s. It hosted the Challenge Round in 1951 (Australia defeating the United States), 1954 (USA def. Australia), 1960 (Australia def. Italy), 1965 (Australia def. Spain), and the final in 1977 (Australia def. Italy). The stadium also saw the USA defeat Italy in the Inter-Zonal Final in 1952 (before losing to Australia in the Challenge Round in Adelaide) and saw the USA defeat Australia in the 1979 semifinal. The 1954 final set the record for the largest crowd at a sanctioned tennis match, 25,578. This record held until 2004, when the Davis Cup final at the Estadio Olímpico de Sevilla, a converted football stadium, beat it. Pat Rafter defeated Cédric Pioline in a Davis Cup tie after recovering from being two sets down in 1997. Australian Open White City hosted the last Australian Open tournament to be held outside Melbourne, in 1971. Ken Rosewall and Margaret Court were the 1971 Champions. Sydney International Martina Hingis defeated Jennifer Capriati in the final of the Sydney International in 1997. Redevelopment 2022-2024 White City was purchased by the Maccabi-Hakoah Club in 2010–11. Plans included building a large community centre, including tennis courts, however, redevelopment was slow due to drawn out disputes over the plans. Demolition was completed in December 2022 and 9 new courts (synthetic grass and hard courts) are due to open by the end of 2024. Notes External links White City Tennis website
White Foil Gold Mine

The White Foil Gold Mine is a gold mine 23 km south-west of Kalgoorlie, Western Australia, owned and operated by Australian company Evolution Mining Limited, who purchased the mine in 2015. History The White Foil deposit was discovered in 1996. The mine, then own jointly by Mines and Resources Australia (51%) and AurionGold Limited (49%), started operations in February 2002. Ore was treated at the Paddington Gold Mine, which, at the time, was owned by AurionGold, and the first gold pour took place in August 2002. The mine was placed in care and maintenance in August 2003, after excessive flow of saline water into the open pit. AurionGold was taken over by Placer Dome Limited in January 2003. Placer Dome in turn was taken over by Barrick Gold in March 2006. In September 2006, La Mancha Resources announced the takeover of Mines and Resources Australia, a subsidiary of the French company Areva, and thereby the White Foil mine. The company dewatered the flooded pit in 2007 and 2008. On 27 January 2010, La Mancha announced that ore from White Foil would be toll-treated at the new Three Mile Hill treatment plant at the Coolgardie Gold Mine, owned by Focus Minerals. Mining at White Foil was to resume in March 2010. Open pit operations at the mine restarted in 2014. In April 2015, Evolution Mining completed the buy-out of La Mancha Resources Australian operations, valued at A$300 million, and thereby acquired the Frog's Leg and White Foil gold mines as well as the nearby processing plant at the Mungari. Ownership of the mines was eventually transferred on 24 August 2015. Mining at Frog's Leg is carried out in an underground operation while White Foil is an open pit operation, with the ore processed at the Mungari plant, which was constructed in 2013–14.

Баду

Баду (англ. Badu Island) — остров в 60 км к северу от острова Терсди (Квинсленд, Австралия). Входит в группу островов Торресова пролива. География Баду представляет собой небольшой остров, расположенный в западной части группы островов Торресова пролива, примерно посередине между Папуа — Новой Гвинеей и Австралией. Ближайший остров, Моа, отделён от него трёхкилометровым проливом. Площадь Баду составляет 97,8 км². Длина береговой линии — 43,2 км. Высшая точка достигает 209 м. С геологической точки зрения остров Баду и соседний Моа представляют собой остатки существовавшей в период плейстоцена земельной перемычки между островом Новая Гвинея и континентом Австралия, а также являются северной оконечностью полуострова Кейп-Йорк, возникновение которого датируется примерно периодом голоцена. Сам остров Баду отделился от полуострова примерно в 8-6 тысячелетии до нашей эры. Значительную часть острова занимают обнажённые базальтовые породы. Открытые местности слегка покрыты растительностью. Имеются густые мангровые заросли. История В прошлом Баду имел репутацию острова охотников за головами. До 1870-х годов основными занятиями местных жителей была охота на черепах, дюгоней. Между островитянами часто вспыхивали конфликты. В 1870-х годах на острове была основана база ловцов жемчуга, а к 1880-м годам основным занятием для местных жителей стала работа на небольших судах. Примерно в это же время на острове появились первые христианские миссионеры. Население В 2006 году на Баду проживало 818 человек. Из них подавляющее большинство (707 человек) были представителями коренных народов Австралии (островитян Торресова пролива и австралийских аборигенов). Основные языки общения — креольский язык Торресова пролива (на нём общались 455 человек) и кала-лагав-я (150 человек). На английском языке дома общались только 7,7 % островитян. Основная религия — христианство (англиканство). Главное поселение находится на юго-западном берегу. На острове действует аэродром. Примечания Ссылки Карта острова. (англ.)

Wiebbe Hayes Stone Fort

The Wiebbe Hayes Stone Fort on West Wallabi Island (also known as Wiebbe Hayes Island) is the oldest surviving European building in Australia, and was built in 1629 by survivors of the Batavia shipwreck and massacre. West Wallabi Island is 63 kilometres (39 mi) from the coast of Western Australia. History Following the Batavia shipwreck in 1629, a group of the marooned soldiers under the command of Wiebbe Hayes were put ashore on East Wallabi Island to search for water. A group of mutineers, led by Jeronimus Cornelisz, took control of the other survivors and left Hayes' group there, secretly hoping that they would starve or die of thirst. However, the soldiers discovered that they were able to wade to West Wallabi Island, where there was a fresh water source. Furthermore, West and East Wallabi Island are the only islands in the group upon which the tammar wallaby lives. Thus the soldiers had access to sources of both food and water that were unavailable to the mutineers. Later the mutineers mounted a series of attacks, which the soldiers repulsed. The remnants of improvised defensive walls and stone shelters built by Wiebbe Hayes and his men on West Wallabi Island are Australia's oldest known European structures, more than a century and a half before expeditions to the Australian continent by James Cook and Arthur Phillip. The remnants of the fort ... [are] nothing more than a tiny, sandstone-coloured rectangle in the scrub about 100 metres [110 yd] from the sea. It is unimpressive and isolated and yet this simple structure, just some loose rocks piled up to make a simple fortress, is the first building Europeans constructed in Australia.
