Inpex Revamps Offer in Wake of Strikes at Australian LNG Plant

Inpex is set to propose a new offer to workers at its Ichthys LNG plant in northern Australia, after union-led strikes ensued due to failed negotiations over pay and conditions. The company remains committed to reaching a fair and sustainable agreement with its employees.

On Friday, Inpex announced its intention to present an updated offer to workers at the Ichthys liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility in northern Australia. This move comes after hundreds of Offshore Alliance union members initiated a strike at the 9.3-million-metric-ton plant following unsuccessful talks concerning pay and conditions.

Inpex reiterated its commitment to good-faith negotiations in a recent statement, emphasizing the company's dedication to achieving a fair and sustainable enterprise agreement with its employees. The strike underscores the ongoing tensions between management and workers over labor issues in Australia's LNG sector.
