Santos’ $3.6b Narrabri gas project hit with fresh legal headache

Santos’ $3.6 billion Narrabri gas development is facing new legal headaches after a key Indigenous group launched a fresh court appeal in its long-running attempt to block a project that is widely seen as critical to eastern Australia’s energy security.

The case, which was filed by the Gomeroi people of northern NSW on June 16, comes just a month after the Native Title Tribunal ruled that the project’s importance to Australia’s energy reliability outweighed potential environmental and cultural heritage concerns.
