Woodside's second-quarter revenue beats estimates on Sangomar output; trims 2025 outlook

Reuters7 days ago
July 23 (Reuters) - Australia's Woodside Energy (WDS.AX), opens new tab reported a stronger-than-expected 8% rise in second-quarter revenue on Wednesday due to robust output from Senegal's Sangomar project, though it marginally lowered its annual production forecast following an asset divestment.
Woodside in late March agreed to sell offshore oil and gas assets in Trinidad and Tobago to London-based Perenco, which included production facilities and interests in the shallow water Angostura and Ruby fields within the Greater Angostura project.
The country's top gas producer posted revenue of $3.28 billion for the three months ended June 30, surging 8% from $3.04 billion a year earlier and comfortably exceeding the Visible Alpha consensus estimate of $3.09 billion.
The revenue beat underscores the strong performance of the Sangomar project, which has emerged as a key growth driver for the company. Overall production jumped 13% to 50.1 million barrels of oil equivalent (mmboe) during the quarter, up from 44.4 mmboe in the same period last year.
As a result of the asset sale, Woodside marginally adjusted its 2025 production forecast to between 188 and 195 mmboe, compared with its previous guidance range of 186 to 196 mmboe.

Navy flagship HMS Prince of Wales leaves Australia during eight-month deployment

The fleet flagship has now set off for Japan in the next stop of its eight-month Indo-Pacific deployment. The £3 billion warship sailed from Portsmouth in April for the mission which involves visits with 40 countries across the Mediterranean, Middle East, south-east Asia, Japan and Australia. As the sun sets on HMS Prince of Wales, we bid farewell to @COMUKCSG after an incredible visit. The Carrier Strike Group's first return since 1997 has strengthened our partnership and deepened UK-Australia ties. Until we meet again 🇬🇧🇦🇺#UKAustralia #CSG25 @SarahMacFCDO — UK in Australia 🇬🇧🇦🇺 (@ukinaustralia) July 29, 2025 A Royal Navy spokesman said that the carrier had sailed from Darwin having taken part in the Talisman Sabre exercise as well as acting as a host for diplomatic visits, including from representatives of the indigenous Larrakia people. He said: 'The flagship hosted a string of senior British and Australian politicians, including Defence Secretary John Healey and Foreign Secretary David Lammy, his Australian counterpart Penny Wong and Deputy Prime Minister Richard Marles. 'The aircraft carrier has also served as the impressive setting for a business and industry event, discussing the growing importance of defence links between London and Canberra. 'And the 2,500-plus personnel in the task group have enjoyed down time to explore the largest city in Australia's Northern Territory.' Able Seaman Owen Altoft, an 18-year-old chef from Newcastle who is on his first deployment, said: 'It's an experience being out in Australia. 📸.@HMSPWLS in Darwin, Australia 🇦🇺#CSG25 | @COMUKCSG — Royal Navy (@RoyalNavy) July 28, 2025 'This deployment has been great – seeing what the world's like, seeing different places, cultures and food. It's what I signed up for. 'I tried kangaroo at the local food market and would try it again in a restaurant.' The Royal Navy spokesman said that the next stage of the deployment would involve combined air exercises with the carrier's F-35 jets and the Japanese navy.

Earlier in the deployment one of the stealth fighter jets was stranded at an airport in Kerala, India, after suffering mechanical issues. After the week-long exercise with Japan, the carrier will continue with its visit to the country while some vessels from the UK task group will head to South Korea.
