Project Haber Gas Pipeline is a cancelled gas pipeline in Australia.[1][2]
Location
The pipeline would run from the West Erregulla gas field of the Greater Erregulla gas fields in the Perth Basin, Western Australia, to a urea production facility called Project Haber near Geraldton, Western Australia.[3]
Project details
- Operator: Strike Energy Ltd[2]
- Parent company: Strike Energy Ltd[2]
- Capacity: 87 terajoules per day[2]
- Length: 120 kilometers[3]
- Status: Cancelled[4]
- Start year: 2024[2]
- Associated infrastructure: Dampier to Bunbury Natural Gas Pipeline
Background
The Project Haber Gas Pipeline would have supplied Project Haber, a proposed project intended for ammonia production that will provide 40% of its fertilizer to Western Australia's agriculture industry. The rest will be exported to Eastern Australia and international markets via the Geraldton Port. Construction was expected to begin in 2023 and take 36 months.[2] Strike Energy Ltd also noted its intention to link this pipeline to the Dampier to Bunbury Natural Gas Pipeline via a small (16.5 kilometer) interconnecting pipeline, the West Erregulla Gas Pipeline.[1]
However, in 2022, Strike Energy announced that they would be relocating Project Haber to Three Springs, eliminating the need for the 120 km pipeline which, according to the company, "would have also been the critical path for environmental and developmental approvals for the project."[4] Strike Energy managing director, Stuart Nicholls, also said that "the gas pipe from the gas field straight to the plant really stood out as a weak point in our approvals timelines and ability to get into construction as soon as possible."[4] Project Haber is now planned to be built above Strike Energy's South Erregulla field, adjacent to the West Erregulla field, in what the company calls the Mid West Low Carbon Manufacturing Precinct.[5]
