West Kimberley Power Project (WKPP)
EDL’s WKPP has four (4) gas fired power stations in the West Kimberley in the townships of Broome, Derby, Fitzroy Crossing and Halls Creek.
To supply fuel to these powers stations, LNG is produced at a facility near Karratha at the Maitland Industrial Estate.

10. EDL and Directhaul – Safely Transporting Essential LNG
West Kimberley Power Project (WKPP)
Each of EDL’s WKPP Power Stations has a connected Fuel Storage Facility for the LNG Fuel. Upon demand, the LNG is vaporised back to NG for use in the gas fired Electrical Generating Modules.
The technology to produce and transport LNG has allowed the creation of a “Virtual Pipeline” to transfer natural gas from the Barrup peninsular to the West Kimberley’s townships
