Lilydale Gas Pipeline

Ensuring gas supply security in the outer eastern region

Multinet Gas is a natural gas distributor with a network servicing the densely populated inner and outer eastern and south-eastern suburbs of Melbourne. The network includes approximately 9,800 kilometres of pipelines supplying approximately 660,000 domestic and business customers. In the outer eastern region its distribution network extends to Lilydale, Yarra Glen, Millgrove and to locations across the Dandenong Ranges.

To meet current and rapidly growing demand in the outer east and to reinforce the security of gas supply it has become necessary to increase the capacity of existing transmission pipelines that transport natural gas to the region.

An existing gas transmission branch pipeline runs along Hull Road and Manchester Road to an existing underground Regulator Station on the north side of the Maroondah Highway at its intersection with Victoria Road. Multinet Gas has contracted Jemena Asset Management to undertake the design, construction, operation and maintenance of a new transmission link approximately 10 km in length along Victoria Road connecting the Outer Ring Main in Yarra Glen to the Lilydale Branch Pipeline.
