Waitsia Gas Plant
The Waitsia Gas Plant construction is progressing with additional accommodation camps constructed, elevated recruiting levels, extended shifts, and the commencement of night works. Targeting connection of Thylacine West 1 and 2 to the Otway Gas Plant in H1 FY25, Beach Energy is undertaking a root cause analysis of the hydro pressure test failure, with costs expected to be largely recoverable.

Gas exploration in the Perth Basin is underway with the second operated well, Trigg Northwest 1, currently drilling. Beach Energy is preparing for Valaris 107 rig mobilisation to the Kupe South 9 well location, targeting spud in Q1 FY24. The consortium rig has been secured for the next phase of offshore Victoria activity, with early planning underway.
Expansion Plans
Beach Energy is embarking on several exciting growth catalysts, including Perth Basin exploration, connection of the Enterprise gas discovery, first LNG sales from Waitsia, connection of the Thylacine West wells, and drilling of the offshore Kupe South 9 well, which the company expects to deliver a strong foundation in FY24 and beyond.

Mornรฉ Engelbrecht, Chief Executive Officer of Beach Energy, expressed optimism about the result outcomes achieved by the company.
