Leigh Creek Energy readies to sell gas for industrial use

In-situ coal gasification developer, Leigh Creek Energy (ASX: LCK) is closer to commercialising its extensive South Australian gas reserves.

The company has received further certification of the gas reserve associated with the former Leigh Creek brown coal mine in SA and is advancing planning with strategic partners.

Leigh Creek has successfully demonstrated underground coal gasification and has been negotiating with potential gas distributors and users planning ammonium fertiliser production.

In a series of announcements the company said it had furthered discussions with offtake gas purchasers to the point where it had engaged legal counsel to develop draft agreements.

“These offtake discussions are being held with companies with considerable energy needs operations that would require gas…to service power, industrial needs and feedstock for major industrial applications.”
