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."
