You have to admire the hypocrisy of the Minister for Resources and Northern Development Madeleine King in Question time in Federal Parliament on 22 June regarding the Middle Arm development in Darwin..The Federal Government has blocked an enquiry into the Middle Arm Development. This development will largely be used for processing gas for petrochemicals, for LNG export, and xcarbon sequestration and storage (CCS). It enables a market for fracked gas from the Beetaloo basin and from the Barossa Gas project,

A background briefing paper Environment Department bureaucrats sent to Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek’s office in July 2022, said the project was central to the expansion of Beetaloo basin gas production, as well as to the “feasibility” of proposed offshore carbon capture and storage. The Federal money is for shared infrastructure such as harbour infrastructure which will primarily be for gas transport. The Northern Territory has dropped all mention of petrochemicals processing from the project websit

Federal Infrastructure Minister Catherine King had said previously the money for Middle Arm was “not a subsidy for fossil fuels” but rather “an important way of setting up our economy for a sustainable future”. Greenwashing at its best. See Middle Arm planned to support the growth of huge gas projects FOI document shows (NT Independent, May 18, 2023)
