In February 2023, NOPSEMA approved proposed marine survey activities by Santos associated with implementation of General Direction 1898, confirming the surveys fell within the scope of the accepted Barossa GEP Installation Environment Plan and were not constrained by Santos' previous undertaking from December 2022. NOPSEMA's Operations Team determined the described activity could proceed with General Direction 1898 in place and acknowledged Santos' notice of activity commencement under General Direction 1 and Regulation 29(1). The exchange demonstrates regulatory correspondence regarding survey scope clarification for the Barossa project.
