We invite you to join our network and engage with us on our activities.
We undertake our offshore activities in the Otway and Gippsland hydrocarbon basins. These areas have significant gas reserves below the seabed and have been critical in providing energy for southeast Australia for decades.
We undertake our onshore activities at the Orbost Gas Plant in Gippsland, Victoria and the Athena Gas Plant in the Otway area of Victoria.
We are engaging stakeholders associated with these activities. For more information about consultation on our activities, click here.
Environment Plan – now open for Public Comment
Cooper Energy is an ASX-listed Australian based energy company. Since FY20, Climate Active has certified us as carbon neutral with respect to our scope 1, scope 2, and relevant scope 3 emissions.
Athena Supply Project - Exploration drilling program, Commonwealth waters, Otway Basin
We plan to conduct gas exploration drilling near our existing subsea infrastructure and within our offshore Otway Basin licence areas offshore from Peterborough, Victoria. We expect our exploration drilling will confirm additional volumes of gas. If so, we will work through the required approvals, licenses and activities to produce the gas via our existing subsea infrastructure. The Otway Basin has been producing gas for decades, and we are planning to provide gas supply exclusively to the domestic market to help alleviate the forecast shortages.
