As reported by OilPrice.com, a joint venture of ExxonMobil and Woodside Energy will invest $222 million in the Turrum Phase 3 project to drill new wells and increase natural gas output in the Gippsland Basin in southeastern Australia.

According to Simon Younger, Chair of ExxonMobil Australia, Turrum Phase 3 will allow the company to produce gas in the Bass Strait past 2030.
