Information

If you look carefully at the map (EOTopo) at this location you will be able to see the topographic details showing the actual path of the pipeline.

The Mereenie Oil and Gas Field commenced production over 30 years ago and has historically produced hydrocarbon liquids for sale in South Australia and natural gas for Northern Territory markets.

In 2019, the Northern Gas Pipeline began commercial operation and provided access to east coast gas markets. In response, gas rates from Mereenie nearly tripled in calendar year 2019 from 2018. Gross production peaked in calendar year 2019 at approximately 16 PJ. In June 2022, gross field production was approximately 30.5 TJ/day.
