Timeline of Australia LNG Workers Labor Talks as They Threaten to Strike

Workers at two Chevron Corp.-operated liquefied natural gas export plants in Australia are threatening to begin strike action next week, ratcheting up pressure on negotiations and putting global energy supply at risk.

Unions gave notice that industrial action at the Gorgon and Wheatstone facilities would begin on Sept. 7 if no agreement is reached with Chevron on pay and working conditions. Strikes may not immediately affect production, but prolonged action increases the risk of disruption.
