Kimberley coastline

Identifying suitable locations for a proposed LNG processing facility

Situation

Advisian assisted Woodside Energy with identifying a suitable location for their proposed LNG processing facility associated with the Browse Basin Gas Field.

Approach

Our consultants undertook a series of siting studies for a range of locations along the remote Kimberley coastline. The studies drew upon a full range of services including geophysicists, geotechnicians, environmental scientists, ship handling and coastal experts, and civil and structural engineers both on and offshore.

Results

Four sites were shortlisted and their locations were ranked by engineering constraints and cultural and societal issues, with four sites being shortlisted for further detailed investigations.
