The federal government is expected to release details of its domestic gas reservation policy within days. However, Woodside Energy’s chief operating officer Breyden Lonnie has warned that a proposed gas drilling program in Bass Strait will not proceed if the reservation scheme materially affects domestic gas prices. Shell Australia chair Cecile Wake in turn says the government must address some "fundamental flaws" in the gas reservation scheme, including the requirement for gas producers to supply 110 per cent of forecast domestic demand and the obligation to sell gas regardless of prevailing prices.
