Santos Limited’s $400 Million PNG Gas Project Puts 2028 Growth Back in Focus

Santos Limited’s $400 Million PNG Gas Project Puts 2028 Growth Back in Focus

Santos Limited has greenlit the Agogo Production Facility tie-in project in Papua New Guinea, opting to boost gas output for the current PNG LNG system instead of constructing a separate export terminal. The move came after the PNG LNG joint venture—where Santos owns a 39.9% stake—signed off. Timing is key here. Santos wants the market focused on ramping up output and hitting project milestones, especially after setbacks like the Barossa holdups and missing first-quarter targets. Shares finished Wednesday at A$7.68, gaining 1.59%—this after a 0.53% lift the day before.
