Growth projects
Delivering the next wave of growth
Woodside’s portfolio of projects is underpinned by project delivery capability that is focused on safety, low cost and lower carbon solutions.
Woodside currently has growth projects across our three pillars of oil, gas, and new energy.
The Scarborough and Pluto Train 2 Woodside projects in Australia were approved in November 2021, with first LNG cargo expected in 2026. Woodside has made a final investment decision to develop the large, high-quality Trion resource in Mexico, first oil is targeted for 2028.
Our new energy opportunities include the proposed hydrogen and ammonia projects H2Perth and H2TAS in Australia and the proposed hydrogen project H2OK in North America.
And our resilient and diversified portfolio will help us thrive through the global energy transition.
Woodside's growth projects
Scarborough Energy Project
Scarborough is a natural gas resource in Western Australia that will play a key role in helping neighbouring Asian countries to take action on emissions reduction and meet increasing energy demand. The Scarborough field is located in the Carnarvon Basin, approximately 375 km off the Pilbara coast of Western Australia. The Scarborough gas resource will be developed through new offshore facilities connected by an approximately 430 km pipeline to a second LNG train (Pluto Train 2) at the existing Pluto LNG onshore facility.
Trion
The Trion field is located in the Perdido Fold Belt, Gulf of Mexico, at a water depth of 2,500m approximately 180km off the Mexican coastline and 30km south of the US/Mexico maritime border. Trion is a greenfield development that would represent the first oil production from Mexico’s deepwater, with potential for future discoveries to be tied back to Trion facilities.
