Reuters is reporting that Inpex Corp. is ready to export the first LNG cargo from its long-awaited Ichthys LNG project in northwestern Australia.

The US$40 billion project has seen multiple delays and significant cost overruns.

According to an Inpex spokesman, production had been going smoothly and shipments of LNG and LPG are set to begin.

An official schedule for the inaugural shipments is yet to be released.
