Forward looking statements This presentation may contain forward-looking statements with respect to Woodside’s business and operations, market conditions, results of operations and financial condition which reflect Woodside’s views held as at the date of this presentation. All statements, other than statements of historical or present facts, are forward-looking statements and generally may be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as ‘guidance’, ‘foresee’, ‘likely’, ‘potential’, ‘anticipate’, ‘believe’, ‘aim’, ‘estimate’, ‘expect’, ‘intend’, ‘may’, ‘target’, ‘plan’, ‘forecast’, ‘project’, ‘schedule’, ‘will’, ‘should’, ‘seek’ and other similar words or expressions. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to inherent known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of Woodside, its related bodies corporate and their respective Beneficiaries. Details of the key risks relating to Woodside and its business can be found in the “Risk” section of Woodside’s most recent Annual Report released to the Australian Securities Exchange and in Woodside’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. You should review and have regard to these risks when considering the information contained in this presentation. Investors are strongly cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Actual results or performance may vary materially from those expressed in, or implied by, any forward-looking statements. Notes to petroleum resources estimates Unless otherwise stated, all petroleum resource estimates are quoted as at the effective date (i.e. 1 June 2022) of the Reserves and Resources Update included in Woodside’s Half-Year Report released to ASX on 30 August 2022 and available at https://www.woodside.com/news-and-media/announcements, net Woodside share at standard oilfield conditions of 14.696 psi (101.325 kPa) and 60 degrees Fahrenheit (15.56 degrees Celsius). Woodside is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the Reserves and Resources Update. All the material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates in the Reserves and Resources Update continue to apply and have not materially changed. Proved (1P) Reserves are estimated and reported in accordance with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regulations, which are also compliant with SPE-PRMS guidelines. SEC-compliant Proved (1P) Reserves estimates use a more restrictive, rules-based approach and are generally lower than estimates prepared solely in accordance with SPE-PRMS guidelines due to, among other things, the requirement to use commodity prices based on the average price during the 12-month period in the reporting company’s fiscal year. Proved plus Probable (2P) Reserves and Best Estimate (2C) Contingent Resources are estimated and reported in accordance with SPE-PRMS guidelines and are not compliant with SEC regulations.


Slide 3

Disclaimer, important notes and assumptions (continued) XX% XXX cps Notes to petroleum resources estimates (continued) Woodside reports its petroleum resource estimates inclusive of all fuel consumed in operations. For offshore oil projects, the reference point is defined as the outlet of the floating production storage and offloading facility (FPSO) or platform, while for the onshore gas projects the reference point is defined as the outlet of the downstream (onshore) gas processing facility. Woodside uses both deterministic and probabilistic methods for the estimation of Reserves and Contingent Resources at the field and project levels. All Proved (1P) Reserves estimates have been estimated using deterministic methodology and reported on a net interest basis in accordance with the SEC regulations and have been determined in accordance with SEC Rule 4-10(a) of Regulation S-X. Unless otherwise stated, all petroleum estimates reported at the company or region level are aggregated by arithmetic summation by category. The aggregated Proved (1P) Reserves may be a conservative estimate due to the portfolio effects of arithmetic summation. ‘MMboe’ means millions (106) of barrels of oil equivalent. Natural Gas volumes are converted to oil equivalent volumes via a constant conversion factor, which for Woodside is 5.7 Bcf of dry gas per 1 MMboe. Volumes of natural gas liquids, oil and condensate are converted from MMbbl to MMboe on a 1:1 ratio. Assumptions Unless otherwise indicated, the targets set out in this presentation have been estimated on the basis of a variety of economic assumptions including: (1) a US$65/bbl Brent oil price (2022 real terms, inflated at 2.0%); (2) currently sanctioned projects being delivered in accordance with their current project schedules; and (3) applicable growth opportunities being sanctioned and delivered in accordance with the target schedules provided in this presentation. These growth opportunities are subject to relevant joint venture participant approvals, commercial arrangements with third parties and regulatory approvals being obtained in the timeframe contemplated or at all. Woodside expresses no view as to whether its joint venture participants will agree with and support Woodside’s current position in relation to these opportunities, or such commercial arrangements and regulatory approvals will be obtained. Additional assumptions relevant to particular targets or other statements in this presentation may be set out in the relevant slides. Any such additional assumptions are in addition to the assumptions and qualifications applicable to the presentation as a whole.  Emissions data All greenhouse gas emissions data in this report are estimates, due to the inherent uncertainty and limitations in measuring or quantifying greenhouse gas emissions. Woodside “greenhouse gas” or “emissions” information reported are Scope 1 GHG emissions, Scope 2 GHG emissions, and/or Scope 3 GHG emissions. For more information on emissions data refer to Climate Report 2021. Other important information All references to dollars, cents or $ in this presentation are to US currency, unless otherwise stated. References to “Woodside” may be references to Woodside Energy Group Ltd or its applicable subsidiaries. This presentation does not include any express or implied prices at which Woodside will buy or sell financial products. A securities rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time. Non-IFRS financial information Throughout this presentation a range of financial and non-financial measures are used to assess Woodside’s performance, including a number of financial measures that are not defined or specified under IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards), which are termed Non-IFRS Financial Measures. These measures include EBIT, EBITDA, Gearing, Underlying NPAT, Net debt, Free cash flow, Capital expenditure, Exploration Expenditure, and Net tangible assets. Refer to the glossary section of the Woodside Half-Year Report 2022 for the definition of these terms and to section on ‘Alternative Performance Measures and non-IFRS Financial Measures’ for a reconciliation of these measures to Woodside's financial statements. Management uses these measures to monitor Woodside’s financial performance alongside IFRS measures to improve the comparability of information between reporting periods and business units. These Non-IFRS Financial Measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance, financial position or cash flows reported in accordance with IFRS. Non-IFRS Financial Measures are not uniformly defined by all companies, including those in Woodside’s industry. Accordingly, they may not be comparable with similarly titled measures and disclosures by other companies. Disclosure of reserve information and cautionary note to US investors Woodside is an Australian company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange and the London Stock Exchange. Woodside reports its Proved (1P) Reserves in accordance with SEC regulations, which are also compliant with SPE-PRMS guidelines, and prepares and reports its Proved plus Probable (2P) Reserves and Best Estimate (2C) Contingent Resources in accordance with SPE-PRMS guidelines. It reports all of its petroleum resource estimates using definitions consistent with the 2018 Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE)/World Petroleum Council (WPC)/American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG)/Society of Petroleum Evaluation Engineers (SPEE) Petroleum Resources Management System (PRMS). The SEC prohibits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, from disclosing estimates of oil or gas resources other than “reserves” (as that term is defined by the SEC). In this presentation, Woodside includes estimates of quantities of oil and gas using certain terms, such as “Proved plus Probable (2P) Reserves”, “Best Estimate (2C) Contingent Resources”, “Reserves and Contingent Resources”, “Proved plus Probable”, “Developed and Undeveloped”, “Probable Developed”, “Probable Undeveloped”, “Contingent Resources” or other descriptions of volumes of reserves, which terms include quantities of oil and gas that may not meet the SEC’s definitions of proved, probable and possible reserves, and which the SEC’s guidelines strictly prohibit Woodside from including in filings with the SEC. These estimates are by their nature more speculative than estimates of proved reserves and would require substantial capital spending over a significant number of years to implement recovery, and accordingly are subject to substantially greater risk of being recovered by Woodside. In addition, actual locations drilled and quantities that may be ultimately recovered from Woodside’s properties may differ substantially. Woodside has made no commitment to drill, and likely will not drill, all of the drilling locations that have been attributable to these quantities. US investors are urged to consider closely the disclosures in Woodside’s filings with the SEC, which are available at www.sec.gov.
