With the pipelines that form part of the massive proposed US$900 million gas-to-energy project having the capability to transport up to 120 million standard cubic feet per day (MMSCFD) of gas from Liza Phase 1 and Liza Phase 2 FPSOs, studies are being done to consider alternative uses of the natural gas.

British consultant and gas-to-shore veteran, Simon Shaw, made this disclosure at the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) virtual scoping meeting which is intended to craft the terms of reference for the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for the US$900 million project to pipe associated gas from Guyana’s offshore oil wells to be transformed into energy at a plant in Wales, West Bank Demerara.
