'Biggest oil project in Australia': $77b fracking, ports and pipeline project proposed for west Kimberley

A project fact sheet produced by Theia Energy and dated 2018 suggested that of the tens of billions of barrels of oil estimated to be locked in the shale rock, six billion barrels were recoverable.

The project aims to ramp oil production up to 100,000 barrels of oil a day which, if achieved, would easily make it Australia's biggest oil producing project. "There is a potential for that, there's a lot of work to be done to see if that is all possible," Mr van Hattum said.Mr van Hattum said a document that had been removed from the company website, which included a graphic showing new ports, pipelines and roads, was not a proposal.

M_LePard IN CONTEXT Auspol Australian government & business will never allow a real place at the table for aboriginal people or the rights they seek & deserve unless they take a handout, become complicit & remain quiet. Expalins WA drive to force aborigines from remote settlements?

Shale oil seam 1.5 km below the surface, a lot of oil and gas.

How ironic if the traditional land owners decide the outcome.....delicious

Fracking, now there's a word that makes by blood run cold, how are they going to manage the water supply ?

Oh look! More activism disguised as journalism from TheirABC.

fracking should be banned completely...

Great Sandy Desert, connected by pipelines to new and existing ports, may become Oz's biggest oil producing project The age of oil is nearly over In 10yrs 50% of cars n trucks would be electric or hydrogen

So what are you going to do with all that money and oil and gas Australians will never benefit from it your mates will give it away to over seas counties then sell it back to the Australian public at triple the price GREED IS GREAT 👍🏿 F/ING PARASITES 🦠
