Having some insight into Woodside from the inside you really only need to look at what they have done over the last 2yrs to give you an indication of their plans / ambitions and that would be Growth and Expansion at home and overseas.

• BHP oil Merger doubling the size of the company.
• Scarborough LNG train @ Pluto gas plant nearing completion and production 2025.
• Purchase of Tellurian Driftwood project in the US - five LNG trains planned.
• Development of Browse Gas Field - NWS back-up - Ongoing.
• PEL 87 Orange Basin - MASSIVE POTENTAIL

Woodside want to be a bigger global player and have been partnered with BP, Shell, Chevron, BHP for years already so they know how to play the game, its not like this is their Rodeo....if they have something valuable and it helps grow the company then they are not going to give it up to their direct competition, they are more likely to use it for their continued growth....from little things big things grow!

Just my humble opinion and time will tell
