2358 GMT - Woodside Energy had strongly signaled its annual earnings ahead of time. But that doesn't mean there aren't outstanding questions. Jarden analyst Nik Burns says investors had hoped the company would name its next CEO today. That didn't happen but Woodside is on track to appoint someone this quarter. "With growth projects all on track, we expect focus on Louisiana LNG sell-downs, Sangomar production outlook in 2026 now that it's off plateau, and state of LNG markets given Woodside has 8 million tons per annum of LNG for sale from Louisiana," says Jarden. Sangomar is Woodside's oil project in Senegal and Louisiana LNG is its gas-export facility under construction in the U.S. Woodside rises 1.7% to A$27.57 following its annual result.
