AN LNG export plant at the Port of Newcastle in New South Wales’ hunter Valley could soon be going ahead.
Plans to make the port a liquefied natural gas (LNG) hub have become more feasible since the approval of Western Australia's $43 billion Gorgon Gas deal.
State Ports Minister Joe Tripodi said he and Federal Government officials were closely examining the prospects for such a facility.
Eastern Star Gas is behind plans for the plant at Newcastle Port.
A recent feasibility study revealed Newcastle is ideally suited to an LNG plant.
