Woodside achieved second quarter production volumes of 20.0 million barrels of oil equivalent (MMboe). Sales revenue was US$1,345 million.
Woodside recorded a 23% increase in production compared to the corresponding half in 2012, largely due to the full half-year of production at the Pluto LNG Plant.
During the quarter Woodside successfully completed the first planned shutdown of the Pluto LNG Plant, in addition to a major planned shutdown at the North West Shelf Karratha Gas Plant. A subsequent unplanned shutdown at Pluto led to a revision in the 2013 production target range. Production has since resumed at the plant.
