This FOI release is a Biannual Progress Report dated 1 November 2025, submitted by Woodside Energy (Victoria) Pty Ltd on behalf of the titleholders (including Cooper Energy (MF) Pty Ltd) under Direction 5 of NOPSEMA's General Direction 2016. It covers decommissioning of the Minerva gas field (VIC/L22 and VIC/PL33) for 1 April to 30 September 2025. The remaining property is a 2.1 km rigid flowline/umbilical bundle, which remains in the field. Woodside reports no in-field removal activity in the period, only pipe bundle clamp recovery by a local contractor, and says activities under the Commonwealth Environment Plan have ceased while clamp loss mitigations are developed. An EP revision is scheduled for Q1 2026. The Safety Case decommissioning activities have also ceased. The report's compliance table and implementation plan (Attachment A, which appears as an image) are included. The release does not contain NOPSEMA assessment or enforcement correspondence.
