April 14 (LNGJ) - Woodside Energy, the operator of two LNG export plants in Western Australia, has announced the start-up of the BP-operated Mad Dog Phase II project costing $9 billion from the Argos offshore facility in the deepwater US Gulf of Mexico. Woodside holds a 23.9 percent non-operated interest in Mad Dog through its acquisition of BHP Petroleum.
Woodside Chief Executive Meg O’Neill said the production start-up from Mad Dog Phase II demonstrated the ongoing value being delivered by Woodside’s merger with BHP’s petroleum business in 2022. “Mad Dog is one of several low cost producing assets for Woodside in the region with significant expansion potential and in close proximity to infrastructure and attractive markets,” added O’Neill.
