Mereenie Oil Field

The Mereenie Oil Field is a source of oil and gas in the Amadeus Basin. It is connected to Darwin by the Amadeus Gas Pipeline and to Alice Springs by an oil pipeline. It was discovered in 1963 and began production in 1984. Since then it has produced over {{convert|16|MMoilbbl}} of oil and condensate and over {{convert|240|cuftnaturalgas}} of gas. Production in 2014 was {{convert|225,600|oilbbl}} of oil, {{convert|41,000|BOE}} of condensate and {{convert|5|PJ}} of natural gas.[3]

Since September 2015, the oil and gas field has been operated by Central Petroleum. Central is 50% owner with a subsidiary of Macquarie Bank owning the other 50% since 2017 when it bought that share from Santos Limited.[3]
