Australian government confident “hot” Beetaloo’s potential will be a boost to the economy

OVERNMENT plans to accelerate gas exploration and development in the Northern Territory’s Beetaloo sub-basin to create thousands of jobs, provide significant economic benefits to the region and ensure Australia remains a world leader in the production of natural gas.

Federal Minister for Resources, Water and Northern Australia Keith Pitt said the Government’s approach would speed up exploration and production in the Beetaloo by around two years.

“The Government will provide up to $50 million for exploration that occurs before June 30, 2022, allowing the benefits of this important asset to be realised sooner,” Minister Pitt said.

Australia’s Blueprint as $100B Oil and Gas Decommissioning Bill Looms

Could Asian Countries Follow Suit

Australia has passed legislation that could set a precedent for who pays to clean up the fossil fuel industry in Asia, making former owners of oil and gas fields responsible for the costs of dismantling facilities if later owners fail.

The new law provides a blueprint for governments tussling with the oil and gas industry over the removal of hundreds of obsolete energy facilities, particularly as the world moves to a lower-carbon economy.

The cost of decommissioning offshore facilities in Australia is expected to run to $40 billion, with half of that in the next 10 years. For Asia-Pacific as a whole the clean-up bill is estimated at $100 billion out to 2050, say consultants Wood Mackenzie.
