Ipswich CSG sites ruled out by Arrow

ARROW Energy has ruled out CSG exploration in the Ipswich area despite holding exploration leases across the city.

The energy company owns mining leases from Forest Lake in the east to Toowoomba in the west and south to the border.

There are currently three wells in Swanbank and Springfield areas.

Drilled by Arrow in 2002 and 2003, and Conoco in 1996, two of the wells are abandoned and the third suspended.

However, despite expanding their exploration in the Boonah region, a spokeswoman for Arrow ruled out exploration creeping north.

"Arrow is continuing with its planned rehabilitation of wells where it has completed exploration work, as required by State Government regulation," she said.

"Arrow has no other plans at this time."
