Woodside Petroleum mulls Myanmar gas sales to China, Thailand

Woodside Petroleum is considering piping gas from its discoveries off the coast of Myanmar to China or Thailand as part of a strategy to accelerate development of the finds as progress at its large Browse floating LNG project has faltered.

Gas from the two finds, reported in January and February this year, could be taken onshore and fed into the Myanmar market, or piped through spare capacity in existing onshore pipelines to Thailand or up to China, chief operating officer Mike Utsler said.
