This proposal relates to the establishment, by undertaking clearing and earthworks, of a section of the western portion of the Burrup East-West Corridor west of Burrup Road, for the installation of anticipated infrastructure services within it.
Services to be potentially located in the proposed corridor include sealed conveyors, an inspection and maintenance track, pipelines, transmission lines and cables, and communications.
Pipelines using this corridor are anticipated to carry liquid hydrocarbons, urea, methanol, refrigerated ammonia, seawater and potable water, with the ammonia pipeline for Burrup Fertilisers’ plant likely to be the first installed. There will also need to be provision for access tracks for construction and subsequent inspections during all phases of the corridor’s life.
