Gorgon gas project delayed

The Gorgon gas project is suffering from construction delays. The delays have already affected Australian contractor AJ Lucas who has warned its first half profits were likely to drop. AJ Lucas is contracted to provide shore crossings to link the upstream facilities for the Gorgon gas project to the onshore infrastructure on Barrow Island.
