Project Approval Process
The Department of Industry and Resources works closely with large project developers to identify the major Government approvals necessary for a project to proceed in a manner and time-frame which is satisfactory to both the proponent and Government.
The approvals required for each individual project can vary widely, depending on its nature and location.
Advice on making applications, title management or legislative requirements can be obtained by contacting the Petroleum and Royalties Division.
