Queensland gas supply deal enacted

Queensland’s liquefied natural gas (LNG) producers have enacted a deal struck with the federal government to provide sufficient gas supply to the domestic market in 2018 and 2019, signing an industry-government agreement. Shell, Origin Energy and Santos in September agreed to supply an additional 54 PJ to 107 PJ of uncontracted gas to the domestic market, depending on demand, to ensure that there was no supply shortfall in 2018 and 2019.
