- A 32.6-km subsea pipeline (Casino pipeline) connecting the Casino wells to the Iona Gas Plant
- A 22-km subsea pipeline (Casino to Pecten East pipeline) tying in to the Casino Pipeline, carrying gas from the Henry-2 and Netherby-1 wells, with an additional section to a potential production well in the Pecten reservoir.
