Haven't seen any reports from Dept of Resources regarding outcome of Phase 2 Market Engagement Report, however, this seems somewhat positive on the Bowen Basin Pipeline Study page ... not sure how long it's been there?

Benefits of a new gas pipeline
Gas is a critical energy source for Queensland’s manufacturing sector. A more affordable gas supply will support jobs in our supply chain and industries as well as providing gas to firm electricity supplies, allowing the integration of greater volumes of renewable electricity.The Bowen Basin, which has traditionally focused on coal production, has the potential to bring more gas to Queensland’s domestic and export markets – by opening up areas for new gas production and capturing unutilised gas from coal mines.Increasing supply to the east coast will not only mean more affordable gas for domestic customers but will provide more royalties for Queensland and jobs for Queenslanders.
A gas pipeline connecting the Bowen Basin can potentially reduce fugitive gas emissions from the resources industry, contributing towards Queensland’s transition to a low-carbon economy.
