SINGAPORE, May 18 (Reuters) - Chevron (NYSE:CVX) CVX.N has begun to restart its Gorgon liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facility in Australia following its unplanned shutdown in April, the U.S. energy major said on Wednesday.
"We confirm start-up activities are underway on Gorgon train one with a plan to safely resume production in the coming weeks," a Chevron spokesman told Reuters.
The $54 billion Gorgon project shut down in April following technical problems, only shortly after starting up first production.
