INVESTOR BRIEFING DAY 2023
Woodside CEO Meg O’Neill today outlined the company’s strategy to continue to thrive through the energy transition by supplying affordable, reliable and lower carbon energy to a world that needs it.
“Woodside has a high quality global portfolio with low cost and high margin operating assets. We have three world-class projects in execution in Australia, Senegal and Mexico. The combination of the strong base business and these new investments will generate strong future cash flows and returns for our shareholders across the price cycle.
“The world’s demand for Woodside’s products is expected to be resilient in the coming decades as populations and economies grow, with our target markets in Asia driving primary energy demand.
“Growth in demand for LNG in particular is expected to continue as buyers seek to secure supplies to support renewables in the power mix as they decarbonise. Woodside’s LNG-weighted portfolio is well suited to capitalise on that demand.
“Woodside’s strategy is value focused and underpinned by our disciplined approach to capital management. We have both organic and inorganic growth opportunities that we are looking to progress and in new energy, we’re aiming to develop projects that we can scale up in line with customer demand.
“Our balance sheet remains strongly positioned to deliver both growth and returns. We maintained our dividend payout ratio at 80% in the first half of this year and have now returned a total of $6.3 billion to shareholders since our merger with BHP Petroleum.
“Woodside is executing three major projects: Sangomar in Senegal, Scarborough in Australia and Trion in Mexico. Sangomar is targeting first oil in mid-2024 and will produce a crude that is well suited to European refineries.
“The recent sell down of a 10% non-operating interest in Scarborough to LNG Japan demonstrated the value of the project to our customers.1 Once operational, Scarborough would be among the lowest carbon intensity sources of LNG when delivered into north Asia.
| 1 | Subject to completion of the transaction, expected in Q1 2024. |

“Execution of Scarborough is progressing, with construction of the floating production unit 50% complete and fabrication of the subsea flowlines and trunkline complete. Fabrication of the Pluto Train 2 modules in Indonesia and site works in Karratha are progressing well. We continue to engage with the offshore regulator and other stakeholders to progress secondary environmental approvals in support of our targeted first LNG cargo in 2026.
“At Trion, we recently received approval of the field development plan from the Mexican regulator. The project is targeted to begin production in 2028 and will be a lower carbon intensity source of oil than the global deepwater average. Trion will have a cost of supply of less than $50/barrel and a payback period of less than four years.
“Over the course of 2023, Woodside has refined a pathway to our Scope 1 and 2 net zero aspiration by 2050, including cumulative design and operate out emissions reductions totalling approximately 28 million tonnes. We are progressing large scale abatement technologies, aiming to reduce the cost of future decarbonisation opportunities.
“In new energy, we are targeting hydrogen, ammonia and emerging fuels production leveraging Woodside’s core capabilities. In addition to our proposed H2OK liquid hydrogen project in Oklahoma, we are maturing potential locations for large-scale lower carbon ammonia production facilities.
“We are building a portfolio of offshore carbon capture and storage (CCS) opportunities with the view to decarbonising our base business and offering this as a service to customers. These opportunities have the potential to store more than 3 million tonnes per annum of carbon dioxide by 2030,” she said.

Glossary Woodside has set its Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets on a net Wood Mackenzie defines low carbon hydrogen in its Q3 2023 Global Hydrogen Market Net greenhouse basis, allowing for both direct emissions reductions from its operations and emissions Tracker. There are three categories within the low carbon definition. gas emissions reductions achieved from the use of offsets. Net greenhouse gas emissions are equal to an entity's gross greenhouse gas emissions reduced by the number of retired offsets Green – from renewable electricity via electrolysis. Renewable electricity can include solar PV, solar thermal, wind, geothermal, hydropower, wave power or any other renewable Net equity electricity generating resource. For the purposes of the Q3 2023 Global Hydrogen Market greenhouse gas Woodside's equity share of net greenhouse gas emissions Tracker, so called “pink” or “yellow” hydrogen, which is electrolysis powered by nuclear, is emissions wrapped in with “green” hydrogen. Net zero emissions are achieved when anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere are balanced by anthropogenic removals over a specified period. Where Blue – from fossil-based hydrogen production either via steam-methane reforming (SMR), Low carbon hydrogen autothermal reforming (ATR) or coal gasification paired with carbon capture and storage multiple greenhouse gases are involved, the quantification of net zero emissions depends Net zero on the climate metric chosen to compare emissions of different gases (such as global (CCS).
