MC13 Underground gas storage
Gas storage in porous geological structures will be permitted only where the mineral planning authority is satisfied that the capacity and integrity of the geological structure has been proven to be suitable. Proposals will also be required to demonstrate that there would be no significant adverse impacts on the environment as a consequence, particularly, of the
- proposed location of the wellhead and facilities;
- location and scale of associated surface development, which should be the minimum required; and
- pipelines for gas transfer and their routeing.
