Field/project development
Woodside’s $12-billion gas project offshore Western Australia is expected to produce up to 8 mtpa once it’s complete.
Engineering, procurement, construction, and installation awards made at the end of 2025 are expanding Saipem’s role in Turkey’s two largest offshore gas fields, plus Saudi Arabia’s Berri, Abu Safah, and Marjan oil fields and Qatar’s North Field gas giant in the Persian Gulf.
The platform brings the field’s installed production capacity to 1.5 million BOPD.
-
The new development is estimated to hold 46 million bbl of recoverable oil and is planned to start up in late 2028. -
The project in the US Gulf is expected to add about 15,000 BOEPD to the deepwater Atlantis project at peak production.
-
First oil is expected from Phase 1 of the project in 2028, with up to four more phases planned.
-
The Gorgon Phase 3 project aims to counter declining reservoir pressure to sustain gas supplies to Western Australia’s domestic market and support LNG exports to Asia.
-
The $100-billion project is widely considered the largest unconventional development outside of the US and is noted by Aramco as the largest nonassociated gas development in the kingdom.

This study presents a novel hybrid approach to enhance fraud detection in scanned financial documents.
-
This paper provides insight into existing tools, methodologies, and processes that can help any capital project or organization improve predictability of outcome while mitigating risks and exploiting opportunities effectively.
-
The authors state that issues faced by the Gorgon carbon capture and storage project primarily relate to risk and pressure management of the produced water from the Dupuy formation rather than from capture, transport, injection, and storage technologies.
-
As the industry advances through a pivotal stage of the energy transition, emphasis remains on topics such as carbon capture and storage (CCS), decarbonized operations, digital transformation, and asset integrity—areas driving innovation, operational excellence, and sustainable value within SPE’s evolving technical landscape.
