Submissions open for Scarborough nearshore component

The Western Australia Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) opened submissions for the Woodside-operated project yesterday and will be accepting comments until Monday 9 September 2019. The Scarborough Project will see the Scarborough gas fields located approximately 375 km off the Burrup Peninsula in WA connected via export pipeline to the Pluto LNG onshore facility for gas processing. The submitted project proposal includes shore crossing site preparation, including installation of temporary facilities along the shoreline at the Pluto facility to enable the installation of the trunkline in shallower depths. Approximately 32.7 km of trunkline installation is also included in the nearshore component proposal, as well as dredging operations, shore crossing site reinstatement, rock supply and dumpings to protect the trunkline, pre-commissioning, commissioning and operation activities and decommissioning. Woodside is targeting 2020 for a final investment decision on the project, which is planned to be operational by 2023. The company has a 75 per cent interest while BHP holds the remaining 25 per cent. For more information visit the WA EPA website.
