Woodside CEO Don Voelte’s announcement that gas from the Browse Basin may be processed on the Burrup has been criticised as “unrealistic and short-sighted.”
Robin Chapple, a spokesperson for the Perth-based Friends of Australian Rock Art, said today that there was no room in Karratha or Dampier to support further industrial development on the Burrup.
“Karratha workers are living in seatainers” said Mr Chapple “and the local infrastructure is stretched beyond its capacity.” Mr Chapple said that he understood why Mr Voelte had floated the idea of processing Browse Basin gas at the Burrup.
“Kimberley Aboriginal groups have told Woodside they don’t want an LNG plant on their traditional lands” said Mr Chapple “so Woodside is looking for a place to process the Browse Basin gas.”
“There is a simple answer to Woodside’s problems. It should do what Apache and BHP-Billiton has done, and plan to build its Pluto plant another 40 or 100k down the coast, closer to Onslow.”
“That would also prevent the senseless destruction of the world’s oldest and largest outdoor rock art landscape, at the Burrup” said Mr Chapple.
Mr Chapple called for WA Premier Alan Carpenter to step in and show leadership, by developing an integrated gas industries management plan.
“That would involve no LNG plant or any other development on the Burrup, which is Australia’s largest cultural monument, and a proper balancing of industry’s needs with the need to respect and value Aboriginal cultural heritage” said Mr Chapple.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
