Background

The Berwyndale to Wallumbilla Pipeline (BWP) is owned and operated by APA Group. In 2015, the BWP was upgraded to provide bi-directional flow, allowing gas to be transported from Wallumbilla to Berwyndale. The BWP is an uncovered pipeline under the NGL and is therefore not subject to regulation under Australia's National Gas Rules.
