big enough to justify investment into the exploration and production for the local market only
The exploration and production is complete. We have been using gas in power stations for a while now

All we need is a Govt with b@lls instead of budgies or rectangular glasses to legislate that a growing % of vehicles in this country shall be run on CNG. The same as we have to reduce CO2 by X% by 2020. Other countries do it, why can't we?

Additionally, require all Govt (Federal, State and local) purchased vehicles be Oz made and run on CNG. Other than public servants who are required to go off road, no public servant needs a $100,000+ landcruiser to toddle around the city.
