Santos buys new pipeline to connect Narrabri gas project to grid

which still needs buy-in from landholders and local councils, would create a second north-south link by connecting Queensland’s Wallumbilla gas hub near Roma to Newcastle and Sydney markets.Advertisement

At present, Queensland gas travelling south needs to take a roundabout route via Moomba in South Australia’s north, before being directed to either NSW or Victoria, totting up transportation tariffs, mostly for APA. But it would need new approvals for two additional gas permits it acquired off APLNG in January, which had already been granted to the LNG exporter.The Greens called on federal Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek to block Senex’s gas expansion in Queensland, saying it could jeopardise Australia’s 43 per cent emissions reduction target by 2030.But Ms King said gas would remain a crucial transition fuel as Australia moves towards a low emissions economy.

On the road to net zero “we see the resources sector as part of the solution – not as part of the problem,” says Madeleine King.“I’m not going to try and boss around state and territory governments. They make the choices for themselves and their community and the results are self-evident,” Ms King said.

At the same time, NSW has had a go-slow on gas development, while Victoria has had a moratorium on onshore gas development. Senator Hanson-Young reiterated her party’s calls for the inclusion of a climate trigger in environmental laws to consider the impact of emissions from new projects, saying gas “was not a transition fuel”.

what it will do is connect the new fracking fields in NSW with the export terminal in QLD ...it's nothing to do with domestic supply...I hope it gets knocked on the head...

Santos takes 'important step' in getting Narrabri Gas Project off the groundThe energy giant has taken ownership of a company with approval for a pipeline which Santos needs to get its gas from Narrabri into the domestic market. A step backwards imo If the important step is shelving the project, then Santos would be doing the right thing. Otherwise they are just helping to ensure the destruction of the environment for future generations Good for NSW.👍
