Onshore Site Options for the Master Plan<br />

Combining all these requirements resulted in the development on two different options for<br />

siting the <strong>LNG</strong> <strong>Precinct</strong> in the vicinity <strong>of</strong> James Price Point. The first was based on a<br />

<strong>Precinct</strong> with marine facilities crossing north <strong>of</strong> James Price Point and is shown in Figure<br />

1. Figure 2 shows the alternative Master Plan option with the marine facilities shore<br />

crossing located to the south <strong>of</strong> James Price Point.<br />

These layouts are intended to provide a basis for considering site selection. The final<br />

details <strong>of</strong> the facilities layout and boundaries would be subject to further detailed<br />

engineering studies, heritage surveys and environmental assessments. The conceptual<br />

layouts show a possible staging as follows:<br />

� Stage 1: the foundation proponent builds a 12.5 million tonne per annum capacity<br />

<strong>LNG</strong> plant;<br />

� Stage 2: expansion by the foundation proponent to approximately 25 million tonnes<br />

per annum <strong>LNG</strong> capacity;<br />

� Stage 3: A second proponent builds a 12.5 million tonnes per annum capacity <strong>LNG</strong><br />

plant;<br />

� Stage 4: A third proponent builds a 12.5 million tonnes per annum capacity <strong>LNG</strong><br />

plant (giving a total <strong>Precinct</strong> capacity <strong>of</strong> 50 million tonnes per annum <strong>of</strong> <strong>LNG</strong>);<br />

The number <strong>of</strong> proponents and the amount <strong>of</strong> <strong>LNG</strong> production will depend on how much<br />

gas is discovered and how attractive it is for those companies to build an <strong>LNG</strong> plant in the<br />

<strong>Precinct</strong>.<br />
