Chevron and its contractors are reducing the workforce at the Gorgon LNG project in Western Australia, with more job cuts expected as the construction phase of the project winds down. About 1,200 jobs have been cut at the Gorgon gas plant on Barrow Island in recent weeks, while Chevron is also believed to have downsized the workforce at its Australian head office in Perth. Data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics shows that the state economy shed about 10,000 jobs in November 2015.
