“Senex is delighted to welcome Adbri as a new long-term customer into our growing portfolio of leading manufacturers and power generators, broadening our reach throughout the east coast of Australia,” Mr Davies said.

“We look forward to building another strong and mutually beneficial relationship that supports jobs, the economy and helps meet Australia’s energy demand as it transitions to a lower-carbon future.”

CEO of Adbri, Nick Miller, welcomed the new gas supply agreement with Senex.

“We are pleased to execute this long-term agreement that helps underpin our low-cost and low-carbon cement manufacturing operations in South Australia, whilst also supporting the economy and local jobs,” Mr Miller said.
