The open access, 360 mm diameter, 15MPa pipeline will allow Origin Energy, Australian National Power and other interested parties to ship up to 70 petajoules a year. This will lift the inward capacity for gas into Adelaide by more than 80 per cent, according to Origin.
Pipeline proponents have said the pipeline would bring regional benefits of more than $40 million along the construction corridor and up to $1 billion in associated offshore gas development in Victoria.
In addition, it would help promote development of the Minerva and Yolla gas fields as well as create new markets for Otway Basin gas discoveries, particularly the new Thylacine and Geographe gas fields. The SEA Gas pipeline is looking to deliver first gas sales by the third quarter of 2003.
