Minister for Resources The Honourable Scott Stewart
A Queensland-based company has been given the green light to explore for gas on prospective land in the world class Bowen and Surat basins.
Minister for Resources Scott Stewart said first time explorer AusGasCo CSG Pty Ltd has been appointed preferred tenderer for two blocks, located to the east and south-east of Injune, totalling 114 square kilometres.
“Not only are we are doing all we can to get more gas in the market, but we are welcoming first time junior explorers to help bring more jobs and economic benefits to Queensland,” Mr Stewart said.
