EASTERN GAS PIPELINE - CONSTRUCTION COST SAVINGS

The Eastern Gas Pipeline was commissioned in August 2000 to bring a competitive supply of gas to Sydney from Longford, Victoria. The CRC-WS, through its cooperative research program with the Pipeline Industry, provided savings in construction costs for this $M490 project. The savings have been estimated by industry at over $M10 through better design, improved field welding, better detection of welding faults and "many other qualitative benefits."
