The Reedy Creek Wallumbilla Pipeline (“RCWP”) will expand APA’S 7,500 kilometre East Coast Grid by a further 50 kilometres providing a key link to the Wallumbilla Gas Hub for one of the 3 major LNG projects operating out of Gladstone.
APA will design, build, own and operate the pipeline. As part of the project, APA will also construct the associated connection and compression facilities. The total cost of the construction is expected to be in the order of $140 million.
APA has entered into a 20-year contract with Australia Pacific LNG Marketing Pty Limited to provide a bi-directional service of up to 300 TJ/d on the new pipeline.
APA Group Managing Director, Mr Mick McCormack said, “This new greenfield pipeline continues APA’s growth focus with another strategic energy infrastructure asset underwritten by a long-term contract with a highly creditworthy counterparty. It is always very pleasing to further our relationships with existing customers and offer additional services and facilities to add value to and enhance their operations.”
Following processing of the required pipeline development approvals and access arrangements, APA will commence construction in 2017, with the pipeline forecast to be commissioned around the middle of 2018.
