This factsheet describes research project aims and objectives designed to assist community understanding of any potential impacts of onshore gas development on the image and place-of-origin branding of agricultural markets in south east South Australia.
This factsheet describes research project activities designed to explore feasible options to offset lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) associated with proposed production and consumption of onshore gas extracted from the Beetaloo Sub-basin.

Results of the 2018 CSIRO Community Wellbeing and Responding to Change survey # 3 in Queensland, Australia.
This project develops a profile of the local onshore conventional gas industry and its role within the regional economy to date.
13 March, 2019
To better understand the long-term cumulative environmental, social and economic impacts of conventional gas development in the South East, Australia’s lead science agency, the CSIRO, began a three-year research program in the region in February 2018.
26 October, 2018
This project measures baseline methane emissions from natural and human-derived sources in the Beetaloo Sub-basin. The results will inform the community, the Northern Territory (NT) Government and the gas industry.

Coal seam gas (CSG) production has expanded rapidly in the Surat Basin in recent years, leading to an increase in the number of emission sources that may increase pollutant levels in the air. However limited information has been available about the levels of pollutants in the air, how these compare to other regions, and to air quality standards.
31 August, 2017
CSIRO has updated the fugitive emission factsheet which sets out what the science tells us about methane emission sources from CSG wells, pipelines, compressors and other infrastructure associated with CSG production, and their importance in warming the earth’s climate.
