Bloomberg · last updated

The top executive at Woodside Energy Group Ltd.’s $17.5 billion liquefied natural gas project in Louisiana has departed, effective Monday, just over a year after she was hired, according to a company memo seen by Bloomberg.

Sarah Bairstow was a senior vice president and president of Louisiana LNG, Woodside’s first LNG export project outside Australia and a key part of the company’s goal to operate 5% of global production of the superchilled fuel in the 2030s. Bairstow didn’t immediately reply to a message seeking comment on LinkedIn.
