Opposition energy spokesman Bill Johnston said the Premier must do all he can to prevent offshore processing. "Floating LNG would be a disaster for Western Australia and Mr Barnett must do all he can to prevent offshore processing of Browse gas," Mr Johnston said. Processing the gas offshore will mean no Browse gas will ever flow to Western Australia's domestic market, which would be a huge failure on Mr Barnett's part. It's looking increasingly likely Mr Barnett's constant interference in the project has resulted in any opportunities to secure WA's future domestic gas supply slipping away. If the State runs out of gas from Karratha, every business and household in Western Australia will suffer. Mr Barnett must attempt to salvage any opportunities that remain for Western Australian domestic has, even if that means developing a processing plant at the Burrup Peninsula or somewhere else.
