Background

The pipeline is operated by ConocoPhillips, and owned by ConocoPhillips (56.72%), Eni (12.04%), Santos (10.64%), INPEX (10.53%), and Tokyo Electric Power and Tokyo Gas (10.08%). The supply of gas from the Bayu-Undan field is expected to run dry by 2023, after which ConocoPhillips has proposed repurposing the pipeline to carry gas from the Barossa gas field and a new floating LNG facility (FLNG) to be built above the Barossa gas field.
