We have been thinking about how to bring in large reserves of gas from Australia for some time and been listening to what Californians have said about other LNG proposals.

We need time to get our fields developed.

We have the experience and expertise. We look forward to working with all regulators, policy makers, agencies and communities to develop a safe, reliable project that is the best natural gas solution for California.

Woodside has proven supplies of gas and a proven record of safe delivery. We intend to provide a reliable supply of natural gas to curb the spiraling rise in prices. California deserves affordable energy; we can help ensure that happens.

The use of this technology addresses many of the concerns that have been raised about liquefied natural gas.

It is a concept that addresses California's concerns.
