Chevron Corp. announced that repairs to its Wheatstone natural gas facility in Australia will require several weeks to complete following damage to the operation.

The energy company said the damage to the facility will affect the restart of operations at the plant, though specific details about the nature or extent of the damage were not immediately disclosed.

The Wheatstone facility is one of Chevron's major liquefied natural gas operations located on the western coast of Australia. The plant is a significant component of the company's Asia-Pacific energy portfolio.

Chevron has not provided a specific timeline for when repairs will be completed or when normal operations might resume. The company indicated that the repair process is expected to extend over multiple weeks.

The facility disruption comes as global energy markets continue to face supply chain pressures and demand fluctuations across major LNG-producing regions.
