Kleinfelder was engaged to provide gas exploration advice to establish new gas exploration sites and manage legacy infrastructure.

Gaining Regulatory Approval

The primary project challenge was to gain regulatory approval for new gas exploration sites in the context of increasing concern from elements of the community and tightening regulatory framework.

Mobilising the Right Team

Kleinfelder worked with our client to understand project requirements in the context of regulatory legislation and guidelines and time constraints. We established a multi-disciplinary team that included an archaeologist and ecologist to quickly review and guide the establishment of new exploration sites, increasing regulator confidence.

Project Results

Through our delivery of a detailed and thorough environmental assessment, we helped increase regulatory confidence in our client, while also improving approval timeframes. Our clear and practical plans and controls ensured the development team better understood the project and could proceed with minimal impact to the environment and community.
