Clough is pleased to share the Xyris Gas In milestone has been achieved at the Waitsia Gas Project Stage 2 development in Dongara, Western Australia.

The Gas In milestone permits the introduction of fuel gas into the Waitsia Gas Plant and will allow commissioning of the flare and fuel gas systems.

The team is now progressing through commissioning of site power generation, export gas compression and the removal of temporary power generation.

Parallel to this, work continues on the hot water system, the flushing of the Amine system and pre-commissioning of the central and northern gathering systems.

The project is targeting first sales gas in the coming months.

Ranked as one of the largest gas fields ever discovered onshore in Australia, the Waitsia Gas Project Stage 2 development includes a 250TJ/day gas processing plant and associated gas-gathering pipelines

The project has enabled domestic gas production and will contribute to the stable supply and export of LNG to meet increasing global demand. As a critical piece of domestic gas infrastructure close to Perth, it will also continue to supply domestic gas for use by Western Australian manufacturers and consumers.

Clough is delivering the engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning for Mitsui E&P Australia (MEPAU) and Beach Energy Ltd’s Waitsia Gas Project Stage 2 development.
