CSG Firm Floats Offshore Pipeline Plan

Metgasco says the idea of building a floating natural gas facility off the New South Wales north coast remains in the earliest stages of planning.

The company has made extensive coal seam gas (CSG) discoveries in the Casino area.

It is seeking approval to build a pipeline linking the gas fields to south-east Queensland.

However, chief executive Peter Henderson says those plans could change if a different market emerges.
"If we manage to sell gas to an international customer and convert it into liquefied natural gas, LNG, then one option would be to put a floating LNG facility off the NSW coast," he said.

"Then we would run a pipeline from the Casino area across the NSW coast off to the floating LNG facility.
