Asked about the 2025 shipment outlook, the Inpex spokesman said that the company “will likely be announcing that in conjunction with the upcoming year-end financial results next month.”
As for maintenance in 2025, the spokesman confirmed that Inpex plans to conduct maintenance during August-October, but “these dates are subject to change.”
