About Woodside Energy

Woodside Energy works across the entire hydrocarbon chain, from finding and assessing deposits to developing, extracting, marketing and distributing them. Its activities span Oceania, Asia, Canada and Africa, and its output includes liquefied natural gas, pipeline natural gas, condensate, liquefied petroleum gas and crude oil, giving it a footprint across several core energy products rather than a single commodity line.

The company holds interests in a number of major projects rather than running everything under one banner, with stakes in ventures such as Greater Browse, Greater Sunrise, Greater Pluto, Greater Exmouth, North West Shelf, Wheatstone, Julimar-Brunello, Greater Scarborough, and additional operations in Canada, Senegal and Myanmar. This project-based structure spreads its production and marketing activity across multiple regions and partnerships.

Woodside Energy traces its origins to 1954 and operated for decades as Woodside Petroleum before adopting its current name in May 2022. It is headquartered in Perth, Australia, and its shares trade under the ticker WDS.
