WA can't wait: build a decommissioning hub for our environment, jobs, and a green energy future

The equivalent of 110 Sydney Harbour bridges in steel. Rusting at sea.

This isn’t just a clean-up, it’s a once-in-a-generation opportunity to build a world-leading industry. Australia must decommission and recycle 5.7 million tonnes of oil and gas infrastructure and Western Australia is ground zero, with 89% sitting off its coast.

By establishing a large-scale decommissioning hub in WA, we can:

  • Create thousands of secure jobs
  • Protect oceans and communities
  • Recover valuable materials for a circular economy
  • Lead the transition to a clean energy future

Australia can’t wait. WA must lead the way. Build a large-scale decommissioning hub for our environment, for jobs, and for a green energy future.
