LNG Project in in central Queensland, Australia

 Australia Pacific LNG is one step closer to making the liquefied natural gas industry in central Queensland a reality, with the lodgement of its draft environmental impact statement (EIS) with the State Government.

The EIS covers the project's gas fields, a 450 km gas transmission pipeline and an LNG plant on Curtis Island in Gladstone.

Joint venture partner Origin Energy says it is a significant milestone for the project.

Origin's executive general manager, Paul Zealand, says the final investment decision for the project is expected by December this year, with the first gas to be exported in late 2014.
