The company’s CEO Peter Coleman said the project was delivered $630 million below the expected cost of about $2.0 billion and six months ahead of schedule.
The GWF-2 project is in Commonwealth waters about 135 km (84 mi) northwest of Dampier and includes eight subsea wells from six offshore fields (Keast, Dockrell, Sculptor, Rankin, Lady Nora and Pemberton), tied back to the existing Goodwyn A platform by a 35-km (22-mi) corrosion resistant subsea pipeline. Thefinal investment decision on the project was taken in December 2015.
