  • Who uses the DBNGP pipeline?
  • The majority of the natural gas transported by the pipeline is consumed by major industrial users in the mining and minerals processing industries, but it also supplies gas to power generators and gas retailers. The DBNGP was constructed in stages between 1982 and 1985 by the State Energy Commission (SECWA).
  • What is the DBNGP transition?
  • This transition will require the coordinated support of gas users, regulatory bodies, and gas policy makers. The DBNGP (Dampier to Bunbury Natural Gas Pipeline) is Western Australia’s most significant gas transmission asset and provides natural gas to regional and metropolitan WA.
  • When was natural gas introduced into the DBNGP?
  • Natural gas was introduced into the pipeline in 1984 when the first stage stretching from Dampier to Kwinana Junction was commissioned with throughput of about 240 TJ/d. In 1985 the pipeline was extended to Bunbury. The DBNGP has been in continuous operation ever since.
  • What is DBNGP corridor?
  • This land is now known as the DBNGP Corridor and remains State owned and managed today. After almost three years in planning, construction on the pipeline was launched in 1982. Natural gas was introduced into the pipeline in 1984 when the first stage stretching from Dampier to Kwinana Junction was commissioned with throughput of about 240 TJ/d.
  • How will pipeline lengths be looped to the existing DBNGP?
  • These pipeline lengths will be looped to the existing DBNGP to increase flow of natural gas. Construct eleven pipeline looping lengths of 660 mm in diameter, buried adjacent to the existing DBNGP. These pipeline lengths will be looped to the existing DBNGP to increase flow of natural gas.
  • Who owns the DBNGP?
  • In 2004 it was purchased by DBP. During DBP’s ownership, $1.7bn has been invested into the DBNGP in meeting the energy needs of Western Australia, via separate expansion projects, Stages 4, 5A and 5B. As a result of these projects the pipeline capacity was increased by 60% with the pipeline now being 83% duplicated or “looped”.
