Woodside Energy Group NYSE: WDS outlined a new shareholder distribution policy and capital allocation framework at its 2026 Capital Markets Day, as the energy producer targets higher returns from major oil and liquefied natural gas projects.

WDS is reportedly in talks with QatarEnergy for a 15-20-year LNG supply deal that could secure major sales commitments for its Louisiana export project.

PERTH, Australia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Woodside Energy Group (ASX: WDS) (NYSE: WDS): 2026 full-year guidance Prior Current Comment Total production volumes1 MMboe 174—185 174—181 Beaumont New Ammonia volumes revised to 1.5-2.5 MMboe Narrowing of window for Scarborough first LNG cargo Reduced production at Okha FPSO Completion of start-up and performance testing of Julimar Development Phase 3 in September Gas hub exposure2 % ~30 No change Capital expenditure3 $ million 4,000—4,500 No change .

Woodside Energy Group Ltd (ASX:WDS, LSE:WDS, OTC:WOPEF) has cut the top end of its 2026 production guidance as the window narrows for first LNG from its flagship Scarborough gas project. The company now expects full-year production of 174 million to 181 million barrels of oil equivalent, down from previous guidance of 174 million to 185 million barrels.

Woodside Energy is reiterated as a Buy, with valuation remaining attractive despite macro volatility, high CAPEX, and temporary gearing overhang. WDS is advancing major organic growth projects—Scarborough LNG, Trion, and Louisiana LNG—while maintaining strong liquidity and a robust balance sheet. Portfolio rebalancing, scrapping $5B in new energy spend plans, and a $350M annual cost reduction target are expected to drive significant free cash flow upside while its organic growth pipeline advances.

MCY, EQNR and WDS made it to the Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) value stocks list on October 12, 2026.

LNG could benefit as QatarEnergy seeks multi-year U.S. LNG supplies to replace volumes disrupted by damage to its Ras Laffan facility.
