We are currently working on identifying a ‘pipeline route corridor’ within which a pipeline could potentially be constructed. This includes undertaking detailed environmental studies which take into account existing infrastructure, such as built-up areas, and environmental factors such as sensitive landscapes and protected habitats.

We anticipate that we will need ‘above ground installations’ (or AGIs) spaced along the pipeline. These enable the pipeline to be inspected and maintained. We will also be undertaking studies to determine potential locations for these AGIs.

In our next phase, we will refine our plans further by determining the best route for a 24-36 inch diameter pipeline to be laid within the pipeline route corridor.

In addition, we will be asking for input from local communities and stakeholders. To this end, we will hold events and webinars, as well as publishing newsletters to keep local people updated.
