The Papua New Guinea (PNG) Gas Project (the Project) will develop existing oil and gas production fields in the PNG Highlands to produce natural gas for export to Australia by pipeline (Figure 1). The Project is being developed through a joint venture between Esso Highlands Limited (as operator) and its affiliates, i.e. Oil Search Limited and its subsidiaries, Nippon Oil Exploration Limited (through its subsidiary Merlin Petroleum Company Limited), and subsidiaries of Mineral Resources Development Company Limited (the joint venture is referred to as the project proponent). The project gas fields are contained within existing petroleum development licenses or petroleum retention licenses. The participation of the Government of Papua New Guinea (the Government) in the Project is set out in the PNG Gas Agreement 1 ,executed in 2002. 2. The PNG Environment Act, 2000, requires that a project of this type and scale be approved by the minister for environment and conservation on the basis of an environmental impact statement (EIS) which is referred to in this report as the environmental impacts assessment (EIA) report. The Esso Highlands Limited submitted the EIA report and its supporting studies to the Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC) in December 2005.2 Approval in principle of the EIA is expected in May, 2006. 3. This summary environmental impact assessment (SEIA) summarizes the major findings of the EIA report and incorporates new information collected by the Project, the Government, and Asian Development Bank (ADB) missions. The new information (collected to meet ADB environmental assessment requirements), includes an environmental management plan (EMP) framework that will be further developed during project implementation, associated impacts, and a review of the Project’s compliance with the World Bank’s Pollution Prevention and Abatement Handbook (PPAH). In addition, a supplementary EIA on indirect impact assessment of roads will also be prepared (the study is scheduled from middle May to end of July, 2006). It will recommend environmental mitigation measures and a monitoring plan particularly for forests and the biodiversity in the Kikori river basin. II. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT A. Objectives and Scope of the Project 4. The Project has two interdependent objectives: (i) commercialize the natural gas reserves of the existing Kutubu, Gobe, Agogo, and Moran oil fields; and the Hides gas field; and, in so doing, (ii) maximize oil recovery from existing oil and gas fields. The Project will produce 225 petajoules of sales gas per year over about 30 years and potentially beyond, with the first gas scheduled to be available for delivery to customers in Australia in 2009. The main elements of the Project are as follows: (i) wells, gathering system, and gas processing facilities at Hides and pipelines to Kutubu; (ii) a new central gas conditioning plant (CGCP) to be located near the existing Kutubu Central Production Facility; and (iii) a sales gas pipeline running through Gulf Province across the Gulf of Papua to the international border with Australia near Pearce Cay in Torres Strait.3 Project activities involve the development of 11 wells on Hides Ridge, construction of three pipelines (118 kilometers [km]) from the Hides Production Facility to the new CGCP at Kutubu, and construction of the sales gas pipeline running 192 km onshore from Kutubu to landfall and 273 km offshore to the PNG–Australia border.

  • An Analysis of How Political Governance of Liquid Fuels Contributes to Energy Security in Papua New Guinea
    AN ANALYSIS OF HOW POLITICAL GOVERNANCE OF LIQUID FUELS CONTRIBUTES TO ENERGY SECURITY IN PAPUA NEW GUINEA BY FRANCIS HUALUPMOMI A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in the fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Public Policy Victoria University of Wellington (July 2019) Abstract This study examines how political governance of liquid fuels at the institutional level contributes to energy security in Papua New Guinea (PNG) from a political economic perspective. An interpretive methodology and critical case analysis design were used to analyse LNG energy governance regime (policies, legislation, and institutions) and its relationship with energy security. The research design involved analysis of participants’ observations and documents in relation to the critical cases (instances) in the practice of the energy regime under the Somare and O’Neill governments between 2002 and 2017. By using the characteristics of the Quality Energy Governance Framework (QEGF) which emerged from the analysis of the literature on energy governance and energy security, this study shared a new policy insight that energy security is actually created through the interactions that occur between political actors and the institutions and processes of energy governance. The study found that energy governance is a system of interacting institutions, policies and legislation created by the political institutions for the purpose of achieving economic efficiency in order to produce public value. The effective functioning of this system depends on the quality of the political institutions. A strong political institution constructs a quality policy regime which, in turn, translates into operational and adaptive qualities of an energy regime that enhances energy security.

  • Dances and Ceremonies Performed by Bosavi People
    Appendix I Dances and Ceremonies Performed by Bosavi People Aside from Gisaro, the people of Bosavi perform five other types of dances and ceremonies: Ilib Kuwc, Sæbio, Kcluba, Heyalo, and Iwc. Ilib Kuwc Ilib Kuwc is not a full-scale ceremony but a kind of celebratory dance performed in the longhouse during the day by one to four men to project an exciting atmosphere for some significant event. The dancers are costumed as in Heyalo and Kcluba with characteristic arched-frame headdresses of white cockatoo feath- ers with palm-leaf streamers (fasela), and they wear springing rattles of crayfish claws in their waistbands at the back. Dancers usually position themselves two at each end of the longhouse facing the interior and bounce back and forth in short hops across the hall from side to side beating hand drums (ilib). There is no singing, and the dancers make no effort to coor- dinate their motion or drumming. As in all Bosavi ceremonies, each performer is withdrawn and does not address or relate to his audience. When a dancer tires, he turns around to face the end of the hall and rests for a while. Members of a longhouse community may perform Ilib Kuwc among themselves to mark a noteworthy occasion such as a 225 226 / APPENDIX I successful raid or the preparations to receive a ceremonial party of guests. In the latter case, the dancers customarily move into the houseyard to greet the arrival procession, and the arrivals in turn lead out of the forest with their own Ilib Kuwc dancers.

  • OIL SEARCH LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2004 Oil Search Limited ARBN 055 079 868 Oil Search Limited Annual Report 2004
    FOUR INITIATIVES THAT ARE DELIVERING VALUE FOR OIL SEARCH OIL SEARCH LIMITED ANNUAL REPORT 2004 Oil Search Limited ARBN 055 079 868 Oil Search Limited Annual Report 2004 ONE OBJECTIVE TO PROVIDE LONG TERM TOP QUARTILE RETURNS TO SHAREHOLDERS Oil Search’s objective is to generate top quartile returns to shareholders. Four initiatives, outlined in this report, are helping to achieve this objective. Oil Search believes that it must ensure that its core PNG business is sustainable long term and operates safely and efficiently in accordance with global oil and gas industry best practice. Gaining control of our core business, through the assumption of operatorship of the oil fields, has enabled the Company to re-focus on building the PNG oil and gas business, by increased investment in exploration, appraisal and development activity. In addition, efforts to reduce costs and to continuously improve operational performance have had, and will continue to have, a positive impact on profitability. The Company’s results in 2004 demonstrate the success of this investment and operating strategy. Delivering sustainable top quartile returns cannot be achieved without recognition that our staff, host governments and the local community are a vital component in the Company’s success. As such, maintaining world class safety and environmental standards, conducting effective government relations and dealing with our local communities in an honest and open manner are core values for Oil Search. Opposite: Plaque at the entrance to Oil Search’s head office in Port Moresby, PNG 1 2 Oil Search Limited Annual Report 2004 INITIATIVE NO. 1 MAXIMISING THE VALUE OF OUR PNG ASSETS Oil Search has been the operator of all PNG’s producing oil and gas fields since October 2003, when it took over the oil field operating role from ChevronTexaco.

  • Energy Sector Assessment
    CAPE PNG, Linked Document 6 ENERGY SECTOR ASSESSMENT A. Sector Context 1. Electricity sector in Papua New Guinea. Papua New Guinea (PNG) is a vast country with a population of 7.4 million people, of which only about 12.5% are estimated to live in urban areas.1 It is principally the urban areas that have access to grid connected electricity, and it is estimated that less than 10% of the total population has electricity access. Electricity access in rural areas is estimated to be under 3.7%.2 The mining industry, which is one of the main drivers of PNG’s economy, largely depends on captive power stations for their operations. 2. Lack of funding for upgrading and rehabilitation and even for routine maintenance is leading to a further deterioration in services, while the anticipated rise in demand due to economic growth and an increasing population will further stress the system if large-scale investments are not made to develop the electricity system. Supplying reliable and affordable electricity and expanding access to electricity to a larger proportion of the urban and rural populations is thus essential to make a positive impact on the socioeconomic well-being of PNG’s citizens and on the economic development of the country. 3. Electricity generation capacity and major power systems. Electricity generation capacity in PNG is about 250 megawatts (MW). Hydropower accounts for about half of the electricity generated and diesel for a third, with the rest generated from gas and geothermal energy plants, which are principally used in the mines (footnote 2).

  • Notes on the Gulf Province Languages Overview
    Notes on the Gulf Province languages Karl Franklin (Data Collected 1968-1973; this report collated 2011) Information compiled here is from notes that I collected between 1968 and 1973. Following the completion of my Ph.D. degree at the Australian National University in 1969, I was awarded a post-doctoral fellowship in 1970 to conduct a linguistic survey of the Gulf Province. In preparation for the survey I wrote a paper that was published as: Franklin, Karl J. 1968. Languages of the Gulf District: A Preview. Pacific Linguistics, Series A, 16.19-44. As a result of the linguistic survey in1970, I edited a book with ten chapters, written by eight different scholars (Franklin, Lloyd, MacDonald, Shaw, Wurm, Brown, Voorhoeve and Dutton). From this data I proposed a classification scheme for 33 languages. For specific details see: Franklin, Karl J. 1973 (ed.) The linguistic situation in the Gulf District and adjacent areas, Papua New Guinea. Pacific Linguistics, Series C, 26, x + 597 pp. Overview There are three sections in this paper. The first is a table that briefly outlines information on languages, dialects and villages of the Gulf Province. (Note that I cannot verify the spelling of each village/language due to differences between various sources.) The second section of the paper is an annotated bibliography and the third is an Appendix with notes from Annual Reports of the Territory of Papua.
