The Government of East Timor has revealed a sector of a new European built gas pipeline that will be used to pump natural gas from the long-disputed Greater Sunrise gas field in the Timor Sea.

 

The announcement is the latest move in the long running dispute between Woodside Petroleum and the Government of East Timor, who propose to construct a pipeline to pump the natural gas to Dili for processing.

 

Currently, the gas field is managed by Woodside, who have plans to built a floating conversion facility.
