Well prepared for competition

On front-foot to lead LNG developments. Pluto provides first mover advantage in Carnarvon basin; Sunrise progressing on target; andBrowse critical elements being aligned

Beating the competition for resources:

People – highly competitive remuneration and a newly introduced company-wide equity share plan will boost staff retention

Construction – project elements advanced in parallel with modular construction

Contractors and materials – solid history of development as well as significant portfolio of potential projects plus expansion, ensures Woodside gets priority access
