Denison Gas Limited, and its affiliates (Denison Gas or the Company), is pleased to announce it has signed an additional GSA with Shell Energy Australia Pty Ltd (Shell), a wholly owned subsidiary of Shell, for developed and uncontracted volumes from its conventional and unconventional gas fields in the Bowen Basin, Queensland.

“Following our inaugural GSA late in 2022, we are pleased to again be working with Shell after completing  an extensive Expression of Interest process. The Company continues to invest in the business with the goal of making more gas available to the east coast market in Australia.”

David Guiver, Shell Energy Australia Vice President Trading said:

“We’re pleased to extend our relationship with Denison and to be able to bring more gas supply to our customers on the east coast.”
