This release is a single-page Initial Incident Notification from contractor Subsea7 concerning the Woodside Minerva project at the Seven Sisters worksite. It records an incident on 12 January 2025 at about 09:30 hours, reported to the client at 10:00 hours, classified as environmental marine debris. While the vessel was dredging near KP9, a white plastic saddle under 100mm x 100mm was seen floating off the port side after apparently becoming dislodged, possibly by dredging equipment contact or water pressure. It could not be safely recovered. Actual and potential impacts were both assessed as negligible. Immediate actions were a reminder to personnel to report debris and procurement of net-tipped telescope poles for future recovery. The notification states the incident is under investigation with a report to follow. The document does not record any NOPSEMA regulatory decision or enforcement action.
