The new facility is in addition to the $2.2bn of five-year bilateral committed credit lines secured in 2011, taking the total of BG Group's undrawn committed bank borrowing facilities to $5.2bn.
The funds are earmarked to fund the growth programme across its portfolio, which includes its Queensland Curtis LNG project in Australia and a stake in the 'big five' oil fields in the Santos Basin in Brazil.
