Condamine Power Station

Condamine Power Station is a 140 MW combined cycle power station near Miles on the western Darling Downs in Queensland, Australia. The station is located 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) east of Miles on the south side of the Warrego Highway, while the gas reserves are extracted from the Berwyndale South Gasfield. The Condamine Power Station is owned by Shell Energy Operations Pty Ltd, a subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell. Commissioned in June 2009, it has been claimed to be the world's first combined-cycle power station entirely fired by untreated coal seam gas direct from the gasfield and Australia's first steam turbine condenser cooled by coal seam methane wastewater. However, the Townsville Power Station at Yabulu was commissioned earlier, in February 2005, after being converted from a peak load to a combined cycle configuration, but was designed to consume only treated coal seam gas. Construction on the Condamine Power Station began on 19 October 2007. It was completed in mid-2010. The EPC contractor was Austrian Energy and Environment, with the gas turbines supplied by Siemens. Parsons Brinckerhoff were the owner's engineer for construction. The gas turbine with dispatchable unit ID (DUID) "CPSA" began bidding into the National Electricity Market on 1 June 2009, with the first generation made available to the market on 10 July 2009.
