Saipem and sub-contractor teams have installed the trunkline for Woodside’s Scarborough gas project, a critical piece of infrastructure that will enable gas transport from the offshore field to onshore facilities in Australia.
This includes up to 225 terajoules a day of domestic gas supply into the Western Australian market.
In Karratha.
When operational, the 433 km trunkline will transport gas from the offshore Scarborough field to the onshore Pluto LNG processing facility in Karratha.
Lower carbon
It is noteworthy that the installation of the trunkline may took around 12 months to complete with numerous teams and contractors contributing
The Scarborough Energy Project is more than two-thirds complete and is set to help meet demand for the lower carbon and reliable energy the world needs today and into the future.
3000 jobs
The world-class project is expected to generate more than $33.6 billion (A$50 billion) in direct and indirect taxes for Australia’s economy, more than 3000 jobs during the construction phase and create or sustain almost 600 jobs on average during operations.
Remaining project scopes
“The completion of installation is a significant accomplishment, reflecting the dedication of all involved in achieving this project milestone.
“With the last components of the trunkline in place, the focus will be maintained on safely executing the remaining project scopes to support the targeted first Scarborough LNG cargo in 2026.
“The Woodside, Saipem and sub-contractor teams are to be congratulated on their outstanding delivery of this key element of the project,” said Liz Westcott, Woodside Executive Vice President & Chief Operating Officer Australia.
