Business opportunities in the CSG-LNG industry

With over $45 billion worth of projects under construction and more investment in the pipeline, Queensland's coal seam gas to liquefied natural gas (CSG-LNG) industry is creating a range of lasting social, environmental and economic benefits right across the state.

Companies from across Queensland are already successfully winning multi-million dollar contracts offering everything from manufacturing and labour to retail and hospitality for leading resource companies. And it's not only big business benefitting from the CSG-LNG industry's expansion in Queensland. Smaller local operators are also reaping rewards and this is breathing new life into cities and towns in regional growth areas.
