Environmental Impact Statement

The GLNG Environmental Impact Statement is a comprehensive document with almost 13,500 pages of general and technical information.

The GLNG EIS assesses the project impact from our gas fields near Roma, to the proposed plant on Curtis Island.

Due to its length, the GLNG EIS has been divided into sections. To access a particular section, simply click on the link below.
