APLNG saw the creation of coal seam gas (CSG) fields in Queensland's Surat and Bowen basins and a pipeline to an LNG plant on Curtis Island, situated off the coast of Gladstone. The project was valued at AU$23 billion, which brought together a joint venture between three industry leaders in the fields of coal seam gas and liquefied natural gas production – Origin (37.5%), ConocoPhillips (37.5%) and Sinopec (25%).
