Japan's Mitsui & Co expects a final investment decision on a U.S. Anadarko-led offshore liquefied natural gas project in Mozambique in April-June 2018, four months later than expected. "We had hoped to have finalised the negotiations with (the) Mozambican government by December," Hirotatsu Fujiwara, Mitsui's Executive Managing Officer, told Reuters on the sidelines of a gas conference in Chiba, Japan. "We are four months behind." The two-train 12 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) project is expected to start operations in 2022-2023, after construction of about four years, he said.
