Woodside Energy and Shell have suspended talks with buyers to supply new gas into Australia’s east coast, blaming the Albanese government’s intervention into energy markets and warning the move could lead to shortages and gas rationing.

Woodside had canvassed commercial and industrial customers to buy 50 petajoules of gas over 2024 and 2025, but said the process had now been suspended.
