In April, ExxonMobil announced it had commissioned the West Barracouta project, which is set to be the largest new source of domestic gas for the Australian market this decade.
“Investment in projects like West Barracouta, mean that Gippsland gas continues to flow to the Australian market, supporting local manufacturers, such as Oceania Glass, and the thousands of Australians who rely on their products,” it said.
