Primarily involved in oil and gas exploration, Woodside Petroleum is Australia’s largest oil and gas producer.
Headquartered in Perth, Australia, Woodside Petroleum operates in 3 segments:
- Northwest Shelf production
- Pluto Liquefied Natural Gas
- and Australia Oil
Woodside is in development projects too.
Woodside has not stopped with just Australia. The company also ships, trades and has developments in the United States, Canada, Myanmar, Senegal, and other locations.
Nearly all Woodside’s projects involve exploration, evaluation, development, production and sale of both natural gas and oil.
Woodside Petroleum has a long history being incorporated in 1954. In 2001, Shell attempted a hostile takeover of Woodside Petroleum, but it was halted by the Australian Government on national interests.
Woodside continues a strong growth pattern.
