Carbon Transport and Storage Corporation (CTSCo) Pty Limited

Greenhouse Gas Storage Amendment Bill 2025

This bill allows disused greenhouse gas exploration wells to be converted into water supply bores and given to rural landholders for free. After Queensland banned carbon storage in the Great Artesian Basin in 2024, the company CTSCo was left with wells that would normally be plugged and abandoned. This bill instead lets those wells be repurposed as a useful water resource for farming.
