The Queensland Government has approved a major 44 kilometre sector of pipeline within the Callide Infrastructure Corridor State Development Area (CICSDA), a major section of the 435 kilometre gas transmission pipeline for the Gladstone project.

 

The Coordinator-General’s approval of the Santos project will allow the project to progress through to the next stage.

 

“Santos Limited has passed the final major step in meeting the Coordinator-General’s EIS conditions and can now get on with the job of delivering a project which will bring major economic benefits to Gladstone and Queensland,” Deputy Queensland Premier Jeff Seeney said.

 

“This pipeline section is a key component of the gas transmission pipeline network required to deliver gas from the coal seam gas fields to the liquefied natural gas facility export facility being constructed on Curtis Island.”
