NOPSEMA assessed an Environment Plan submitted by Woodside Energy Scarborough Pty Ltd for a 4D baseline marine seismic survey of the Scarborough field in the Northern Carnarvon Basin. The proposed activity involves new 3D seismic surveying across multiple permit areas (WA-61-L, WA-62-L, WA-61-R and others) plus potential extension to the Jupiter field, covering approximately 5,650 km² active source area in water depths of 800-1500 meters. The survey is planned for 80 days (maximum 70 days acquisition plus 10 days contingency) between January 2022 and December 2023. Assessment ID 6780 evaluated the Environment Plan against regulatory requirements, finding the plan contained appropriate activity descriptions in Section 3, with detailed location mapping, timing specifications, and seismic survey characteristics documented.
