DCCEEW placed a stop clock suspension on its EPBC Act assessment timeline for Woodside Energy's Browse to North West Shelf Project (EPBC 2018/8319) in December 2024, invoking section 132(e) of the EPBC Act. The project involves extracting hydrocarbons from the Brecknock, Calliance, and Torosa reservoirs approximately 425 km north of Broome, with two floating production storage and offloading facilities connected via a 900 km trunkline to North West Shelf infrastructure. The department requested additional information and advice from the National Offshore Petroleum Safety and Environmental Management Authority regarding further information Woodside submitted in September 2024. The suspension pauses the ministerial decision timeframe pending receipt of this technical information to inform the approval determination.
