Woodside achieved record production, income, cashflow and net profit after tax as well as growing their reserves.
Woodside achieved record revenue of almost $6.0 billion this year. The 56% increase in sales revenue resulted from higher production and commodity prices. However, the effects of global economic turmoil were observed in the second-half of 2008, resulting in a reduction in average realised oil price from Q3 2008 (A$135.37/bbl) to Q4 2008 (A$72.59/bbl).
At 2008 production levels, the reserves-to-production ratio is 17 years for Proved reserves and 22 years for Proved plus Probable reserves. If all the contingent resources were commercialised and considered with reserves, 2008 production levels could be maintained for 46 years.

SAI Global Limited (SAI) reported a 140.5% increase in net profit after tax for the six-month period ended on 31 December 2008.
The company achieved a revenue increase of 26.4%, driven by a combination of acquisitions and organic growth.

The company experienced strong underlying demand for its products and services across its three operating divisions, confirming the resilient nature of the company’s businesses in times of economic downturn.
The directors have increased the interim dividend to 5.4 cents per share. This dividend will be fully franked.
