So, we've got the luxury of being able to really pick the partners we want to work with and our intention, as we progress towards an investment decision there, is we want to have line of sight to the partnership that we want,” Woodside chief executive, Meg O’Neill, said during Tuesday’s first half 2024 analysts call. “We may not have everything signed, sealed and delivered, but we do want to have line of sight to the partnership. If we didn't have anybody interested.
.. it would not be our intention to go forward at 100% with nobody queued up.
”.
