Woodside and the North West Shelf Joint Venture are continuing constructive consultation with the Federal Government. The parties have agreed to an extension of the consultation period regarding the Government’s proposed conditions as part of the North West Shelf Project Extension environmental approval process.
Woodside recognises the importance of the matters being addressed by the proposed conditions of the environmental approval including cultural heritage management and air quality.
The North West Shelf Project has supplied more than 6000 petajoules of domestic gas, powering homes and industry in Western Australia. If used just for household electricity, this is enough to power homes in a city the size of Perth for approximately 175 years.
Over four decades, the project has paid more than A$40 billion in royalties and excise, provided employment and contracting opportunities to the Pilbara and broader Western Australian community, and invested well over A$300 million in social and community infrastructure within the city of Karratha.
