Economic Contribution

Discover how Australia’s oil and gas industry drives economic growth, creates jobs, and supports national prosperity.  

Australia’s gas industry is essential to our energy security and economic prosperity.

Australians depend on locally produced natural gas every day to generate electricity, for household cooking and heating, and for the energy used in manufacturing to make everyday products like steel, glass and bricks.

Australian Energy Producers engaged KPMG to conduct a robust and evidence-based analysis of the contribution of the gas industry to the Australian economy.

The Economic Contribution of the Gas Industry report by KPMG provides a snapshot of the sector’s contribution to the Australian economy using the latest Australian Bureau of Statistics data.
