The BassGas Project produces gas and liquids from the Yolla gas field, located 147 km south of Kilcunda in Bass Strait in 80 m of water. The gas field is serviced by the Yolla A Offshore Platform, and an undersea pipeline transports the gas and liquids from the platform to the Victorian mainland via a coastline crossing near Kilcunda. The pipeline terminates at the Lang Lang Gas Plan (LLGP) where gas is processed prior to distribution to the Victorian gas network. Commercial production of gas started in June 2006. Offshore operations include an ongoing program of inspection, maintenance and repair activities associated with the safe ongoing operation of the field. In addition this EP considers activities required for the safe cessation of production in the event of earlier than expected decline in field life.
