Exploration and production activities in the country are concentrated offshore northern Australia. We have a 100% share in production licence WA-33-L, which contains the Blacktip gas field. With regard to the appraisal and development stages, we hold a 100% and 72.2% share respectively in the NT/RL8 and NT/RL7 areas, which contain the Blackwood and Evans Shoal gas fields, respectively.
The Blacktip gas field (Block WA-33-L) started-up in 2009 and produced approximately 36 bcf of year in 2019. The project is supported by an unmanned well head platform (WHP), which exports gas via a 108-kilometer long pipeline to an onshore treatment plant, Yelcherr Gas Plant (YGP) with a capacity of 42 bcf of year. Natural gas extracted from this field is sold under a 25-year contract to supply local Australian company, Power & Water Utility Co. Elsewhere in the country, we have a non-operating share in the Darwin LNG plant, which is connected to the gas and condensate field in Bayu-Undan, located in Timor Leste waters.
We create energy
In Australia, we have launched a project for protecting the Aboriginal land near our on-shore gas treatment plant in Yelcherr,linked to the field at Blacktip. We have also built a photovoltaic plant with a capacity of 34 MW. We integrate our business activity with social and environmental sustainability, in order to create shared, long-term value.
The photovoltaic plant at Katherine
In February 2019, we completed the acquisition of a project for the creation of a photovoltaic plant with a capacity of 34 MW in the town of Katherine, in the Northern Territory, which represents our entry into the Australian market for renewables. We began building the plant in early 2019 and it will be produce energy that will prevent around 63 thousand tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions every year.
In 2006, we implemented a wide-reaching project that is still going strong, designed to enhance and protect Aboriginal land. We have established a collaboration with a team of Aboriginal rangers to monitor the land in the region, implemented a Turtle Management Plan to protect sea turtles, provided material for universities and supported initiatives which target health care and schools. We have also facilitated access to energy for the local Aboriginal community.
