MELBOURNE, Aug 19 (Reuters) - Santos STO.AX Chief Executive Kevin Gallagher said on Friday the company may run its Gladstone liquefied natural gas plant (LNG) below its 7.8 million tonnes a year capacity, but said there was no plan to mothball one of its two production units.
"We wouldn't be looking to ever mothball one train," Gallagher told analysts on a conference call.
"But what I would say is that we will operate both trains potentially at reduced capacity to optimise the production across the facilities. And that'll change with time, from year to year, depending on market conditions, and depending on the annual delivery plan requirements," he said.
