Mining and Manufacturing 127 Northern Territory Economy A small number of the Territorys offshore oil and gas operators are located in the Joint Petroleum Development Area (JPDA) area between TimorLeste and Australia, approximately 500kilometres north of Darwin. Currently, BayuUndan and Kitan are the only two producing fields in the JPDA. As the JDPA is shared between Australia and TimorLeste, the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) treats it as a separate economic area. Any economic activity that occurs in the JDPA is divided equally between Australia and TimorLeste. All of the Australian proportion is allocated to the Territory (Map 2). Energy Production In the Territory, the inflationadjusted value of energy production is estimated to increase from $3.6billion in 201112 to $4.2billion in 201213 (up by 17.8percent). Growth is expected to be driven by offshore oil production reflecting a full year of production at the Kitan oilfield and commencement of production at the Montara project. Also contributing to growth is the anticipated increase in uranium production from Energy Resources Australias (ERA) Ranger uranium mine (Chart 10.4).
