Woodside Energy proposes to drill the Swell exploration well, located in Exploration Permit Area WA-483-P off the coast of Western Australia.WA-483-P is located within Commonwealth waters and is owned 60% by Woodside (operator) and 40% by KUFPEC (Perth) Pty Ltd (WA-483-P JV). The WA-483-P JV are planning on drilling one exploration well in this permit to support permit work plan commitments issued under the Offshore Petroleum and Greenhouse Gas Storage Act 2006.
This environment plan covers all mobile offshore drilling unit (MODU) and support vessel operations within the permit area.
The well is located approximately 70 km north-north-east (NNE) of Exmouth, Western Australia. The water depth at the proposed well location is approximately 154 m.
The estimated total duration of the activity is approximately 90-120 days.
