Belisama Gas Project

Project
Proponent: 
Hancock Energy (PBN) Ltd
Proposal description: 

The proposal involves the construction and operation of a Central Processing Facility (CPF) and associated infrastructure, including a buried central flowline and gas export pipeline in the Mid-West region of Western Australia (WA). The proposed location is approximately 350 kilometres (km) north of Perth and 25 km south‑west of Mingenew.
Gas produced from nearby developments, which are separate to this proposal, will be transported via a buried central flowline for processing at the CPF. Processed gas will be exported via a gas export pipeline from the CPF to the Dampier Bunbury Natural Gas Pipeline (DBNGP).
The Development Envelope is 1,326.9 hectares (ha), with an estimated Disturbance Footprint of 291.5 ha, including approximately 5.7 ha of remnant native vegetation.
