The oil and gas industry is what will drive the NorthenTerritory economy in the foreseeable future according to analysts, with hundreds of millions of dollars worth of work from servicing the industry being mentioned
It was announced not long ago that the Northern Territory government has chosen a consortium called ShoreASCO as its preferred bidder to build, own and operate a huge oil and gas support base alongside East Arm Wharf.
The consortium includes several giant companies, such as ASCO Holdings, Capella Capital and Macmahon Contractors.
The base will be open to all companies servicing the oil and gas industry; and is expected to offer important benefits in skilled jobs, good wages and work for Territory businesses.Eight floating gas platforms are expected to be operating off the Territory coast within the next decade, say some analysts.
Shell has confirmed that it will use Darwin as the maintenance centre for the floating Prelude platform. And Darwin is almost certain to service the GDF Suez and Advent fields in the Joseph Bonaparte Gulf.
