The Western Australian Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) has approved the state government’s component of a liquid natural gas (LNG) pipeline, which will form part of the Scarborough gas field project, being developed by energy major Woodside.
EPA chairperson Dr Tom Hatton said the proposal would see the installation of a gas trunkline 32.7 km long, located adjacent to the existing Pluto LNG Facility 8 km north east of Dampier in the Pilbara, Western Australia.
