<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Further to the announcement today that BHP Group (<B>BHP</B>) and Woodside Petroleum Ltd (<B>Woodside</B>) have entered into a share sale agreement to merge
their respective oil and gas portfolios, BHP has approved US$1.5 billion in capital expenditure for development of the Scarborough upstream project located in the North Carnarvon Basin, Western Australia. Final investment decisions have also been
made by Woodside and the Scarborough Joint Venture. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A US$150 million payment is payable to BHP Petroleum (North West Shelf) Pty Ltd by Woodside upon this
Financial Investment Decision (<B>FID</B>) of the Scarborough project pursuant to the 2016 divestment of BHP&#146;s 25 per cent Scarborough Joint Venture interest to Woodside<SUP STYLE="font-size:85%; vertical-align:top">1</SUP>. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The approved capital expenditure represents BHP&#146;s 26.5 per cent participating interest in Phase 1 of the upstream development. Woodside holds the
remaining 73.5 per cent interest and is the operator of the project. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The development of the Scarborough field (WA-61-L and WA-62-L titles) comprises 13
subsea wells, a semi-submersible Floating Production Unit and a 430km subsea export pipeline to the Woodside operated Pluto LNG Facility in Karratha in Western Australia. Field development will be completed in two phases with eight wells drilled in
Phase 1. The upstream production facilities will be installed to supply 8 Mtpa LNG and 180 TJ/day of domestic gas, with first cargo expected in the 2026 calendar year. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">LNG and domestic gas will be processed onshore under a Processing and Services Agreement (<B>PSA</B>) executed today by the Scarborough and Pluto Train 2
Joint Venture Participants, which provides long term access to existing and planned Pluto LNG processing facilities operated by Woodside. The PSA is subject to conditions precedent including regulatory approvals. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Scarborough via Pluto will be one of the lowest carbon emissions intensity global LNG projects projected to be in production in 2030 and will have the lowest
carbon emissions intensity of an Australian originated LNG project at around 0.5 tonnes CO<SUB STYLE="font-size:85%; vertical-align:bottom">2</SUB> per tonne of LNG<SUP STYLE="font-size:85%; vertical-align:top">2</SUP>. The project will minimise its
greenhouse gas footprint through development of low CO<SUB STYLE="font-size:85%; vertical-align:bottom">2</SUB> reservoir fluids coupled with energy efficient LNG processing, in close proximity to the end market &#150; meeting market demand at lower
emissions intensity. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Phase 1 of the Scarborough upstream project was approved by BHP following a thorough evaluation of its risk and return metrics,
including the economics and technical assessment of the integrated project, under BHP&#146;s Capital Allocation Framework and seeks to create long-term, sustainable value and returns for shareholders. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On completion of the proposed merger, BHP shareholders will benefit from exposure to the fully integrated
value chain of both the upstream project and the downstream Pluto LNG processing facilities due to their approximate 48 per cent shareholding in Woodside. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The integrated project offers stable returns with an unlevered IRR of 13 per cent<SUP STYLE="font-size:85%; vertical-align:top">3</SUP>, a payback of
approximately six years from first production<SUP STYLE="font-size:85%; vertical-align:top">4</SUP> and a low breakeven LNG price of less than US$7/MMbtu<SUP STYLE="font-size:85%; vertical-align:top">5</SUP>. The integrated project will benefit from
the brownfield expansion of the existing downstream Pluto LNG processing facilities. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">BHP CEO Mike Henry said: &#147;Scarborough will be amongst the
lowest carbon incremental sources of LNG to world markets. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;Scarborough will provide a reliable source of LNG for global customers and secure gas
supply for the domestic market, as well as ongoing employment in Western Australia. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;Scarborough will provide important cash flows and value for
shareholders of the enlarged Woodside.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition to the approval of the Scarborough development announced today, BHP also holds an option for it
to sell its 26.5 per cent interest in the Scarborough Joint Venture and its 50 per cent interest in the Thebe and Jupiter Joint Ventures to Woodside if the Scarborough Joint Venture makes a FID for the Scarborough project by 15&nbsp;December 2021
and the merger does not complete. This option is exercisable by BHP in the second half of the 2022 calendar year. If exercised, consideration of US$1 billion is payable to BHP with adjustment from an effective date of 1&nbsp;July 2021. The US$150
million payment payable to BHP Petroleum upon FID of the Scarborough project would remain with BHP Petroleum. An additional US$100 million is payable contingent upon a future FID for a Thebe Development. </P>
