Power and Water reported revenues and EBITDA for the financial year ended 30 June 2021 of $810.8 million and $222.0 million, respectively.
The MOU is in relation to gas to be produced from Empire’s Northern Territory assets following award of production licenses, including EP187 and Empire’s newly acquired Western Beetaloo tenements, and transportation services for gas delivered from EP187. The execution of the MOU aligns with Empire’s commercialization strategy for its Beetaloo Sub-basin assets.
The MOU facilitates negotiations in good faith for potential gas sales and transportation arrangements.
