Scope 1.0 Introduction
The Company has developed world class facilities for the extraction, storage, processing and export of LNG. The Company currently operates seven LNG trains with more than 37 million tonnes of LNG per annum of production capacity. The Company also operates two sales gas trains which supply gas to local industries.

2.0 Preamble
The Company’s Operations mission statement is to operate and maintain the company assets in a safe, reliable, cost effective and environmentally friendly manner which meets customers’ expectations.
