01 — Local economy
Business in Darwin
Liquefied natural gas from offshore fields is processed at Bladin Point and Wickham Point, home to the INPEX-operated Ichthys and the Santos-operated Darwin LNG plants. Defence bases including Robertson Barracks and RAAF Base Darwin, the port's trade with Asia and its role as a supply base for Northern Territory mines, and Top End tourism round out the economy.
Where software helps: Darwin contractors supplying LNG plants, defence bases and remote mines run long supply lines, needing stock held across sites, wet-season scheduling and project billing that reconciles with purchase orders from large operators.
