About Woodside
Woodside is the biggest operator of oil and gas production in Australia. Throughout Woodside’s 57-year history we have strived for excellence in our safety and environmental performance and we aim to ensure that wherever we operate, the community benefits from our presence.
Woodside produces around 700,000 barrels of oil equivalent each day from an extensive portfolio of facilities which we operate on behalf of some of the world’s major oil and gas companies.
