The DLNG to PWC pipeline (also known as Darwin LNG Lateral) is a lateral transmission pipeline in the north region of the Northern Territory. The pipeline is owned by ConocoPhilips Pipeline Australia. At present the only pipeline connected to the DLNG to PWC pipeline capable of the transmission of gas is the Bayu-Undan to Darwin Pipeline.
The pipeline has a nameplate rating of 84 TJ per day. The Bayu DLNG to PWC Pipeline is currently a non-scheme pipeline, and is subject to the access regime for non-scheme pipelines under Chapter 6 of the NGL and Part 23 of the NGR.
On 13 August 2019, the AER granted a 5 year category 3 exemption under the NGR for the DLNG to PWC Pipeline and was revoked on 6 March 2020. On the same date, the AER granted new category 1 and 2 exemptions for the DLNG to PWC Upstream Pipeline and category 2 exemption for DLNG to PWC Downstream Pipeline.
