APTNT owns and operates the Amadeus transmission gas pipeline in the Northern Territory. The National Gas Law (NGL) and National Gas Rules (NGR) provide the regulatory framework governing gas pipelines. As with other covered pipelines, we regulate APTNT's reference tariffs - and through this its revenue - under an approved access arrangement.
On 1 July 2024, APT Pipelines (NT) (APTNT) submitted its reference service proposal for its Amadeus transmission gas pipeline. APTNT is required to submit to the AER for approval a reference service proposal 12 months prior to submission of its access arrangement for the period 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2031 (due by 1 July 2025).
