franciss, I too would prefer Woodside for several reasons but if as u say, Apache have a number of smaller stranded gas fields wouldn't a larger Artemis be a feasible tie in to either Julimar or their Barrow Island development via the John Brookes pipeline?
If so, that would have to move Apache in to the top three contenders. A three way contest between WPL, Chevron and Apache improves the prospects of a good outcome for MEO.
