As of 2022, Papua New Guinea had an installed capacity of about 580 MW total, broken down in the table below. Installed renewable energy capacity in Papua New Guinea, as of 2022. Originally published by IRENA. Operating projects in Papua New Guinea. Table only includes projects captured by Global Energy Monitor's power sector trackers.
Many LNG projects under construction throughout the world are having trouble securing SPAs. Experts from the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis believe that by the time the Papua LNG project comes online, the global natural gas market may be saturated which would lower anticipated pricing.
According to Global Energy Monitor's Global Oil and Gas Extraction Tracker (March 2024 release), Papua New Guinea has five discovered oil and gas extraction projects: the Pasca Oil and Gas Field, the Stanley Oil and Gas Field, the Kutubu Oil Project, the P’nyang Gas Field, and the Elk-Antelope Gas Field.
Papua LNG is estimated to cost USD $13 billion. As of April 2024, no sale and purchase agreements of non-binding heads of agreement supply deals have been reached, which increases the project's financial risk. This means that the project lacks sales and assets financiers in which to lend against.
