Ballera gas plant

Ballera gas plant is a natural-gas processing facility located on the Nappa Merrie pastoral lease in the southwestern Queensland, Australia.

Processed gas is transmitted via the 755 km South West Queensland Pipeline to the trading hub at Wallumbilla (east of Roma) in southeastern Queensland, via the QSN Link extension of that pipeline to Moomba (180 km southwest, in northeastern South Australia) and via the Carpentaria Gas Pipeline to Mount Isa (800 km north).

Crude oil is not processed at Ballera, but at Jackson, 65 km southeast.

[1] The Ballera gas plant is operated by Santos Limited which is slightly over 60% owner of the facility.
