Caythorpe Liaison Committee 14th September 2010Project
status
Centrica announced on 28th July 2010 that as a result of
regulatory uncertainty the company had decided not to proceed with
the Caythorpe Gas Storage Project at the current time. This means
that the final investment decision on the project will be
delayed.However, preparatory work at the site will continue so that
if the project is sanctioned at a later date then it will be able
to proceed quickly. Early civil works will continue which will
include the construction of the access road to the Wellsite and the
bridge crossing of the Gypsey Race.

Caythorpe Liaison Committee 14th September 2010Compulsory
Purchase Order
The Company has sought to acquire the interests needed for the
project by agreement with the relevant landowners. However, this
has not been possible in all cases.
The original CPO confirmed in April 2008 did not include all of
the interests required and omitted:rights that are required for the
drilling and completion of the new boreholes and installation of
monitoring equipment, as part of the maintenance of existing
boreholes;a clear definition of the rights required for the
pipeline; andrights to store gas beneath Rudston Road.
As a result it is necessary to promote a supplementary CPO to
enable the project to be fully implemented. Notices to the
landowners involved and in the press will be issued later this
month (September).
