Vermilion Oil & Gas Australia Pty Ltd (VOGA) is the Titleholder for Production Licence WA-14-L, which contains the Wandoo Production Facility. The Permit Area is located in Commonwealth waters of the Carnarvon Basin, approximately 80 km northwest of Dampier and 110 km northeast of Barrow Island, in water depths of approximately 54 m.

The Wandoo Field was discovered in 1991 with production commencing in 1993 from Wandoo A, an unmanned monopod wellhead platform supporting a helideck and five production wells. In 1997, the Wandoo B production platform was installed and connected to Wandoo A by a subsea production flowline.

Wandoo B is supported by four concrete shafts attached to a Concrete Gravity Structure (CGS) comprising of crude oil and ballast water cells. The CGS sits directly on the seabed and provides both structural support and storage capacity for produced oil.

Produced oil from Wandoo A is transferred to Wandoo B for processing and storage. Export operations occur through a Catenary Anchor Leg Mooring (CALM) Buoy located 1.2 km north of Wandoo B. A floating hose is used to transfer the oil from the CALM Buoy to export tankers. Tankers are chartered to offload the oil approximately every three to five weeks, depending on production rates and market requirements. Each offtake typically takes 24-48 hours, depending on the export cargo size and transfer rate.

VOGA has been operating in the Permit Area since 2005.
