The department aims to drive productivity and economic growth, and create jobs for all Australians. Our work leverages and builds on Australia’s strengths; supports business to invest and create jobs; and drives long-term productivity, growth and prosperity.

**About the Branch**
The Northern Endeavour Branch was established in March 2020 to implement the Government’s long term handling strategy for the decommissioning of the Northern Endeavour Floating Production, Storage and Offtake (FPSO) facility and remediation of associated oil fields.
Companies must decommission oil and gas wells, pipelines and other infrastructure no longer needed or in use. Decommissioning activities like plugging and abandoning wells, removing property and rehabilitating sites must be done in a safe and environmentally responsible way. The Government’s commitment to decommission the Northern Endeavour FPSO follows the liquidation of the Northern Endeavour Owner - the Northern Oil and Gas Australia (NOGA) group of companies in 2019.
Decommissioning and remediation will likely take several years and involve 3 phases:
- Phase 1: Decommissioning and disconnecting the facility from the subsea equipment
- Phase 2: Permanent plugging and well abandonment
- Phase 3: Removing subsea infrastructure and remediation of the Laminaria and Corallina fields.

This includes operating and maintaining the FPSO, preparing it for disconnection, suspension of subsea wells, disconnection and towing the FPSO off location. This work is delivered by an integrated team that includes APS employees as well as contracted advisors and technical personnel. The team also manages the ongoing engagement with other Commonwealth agencies in connection with regulatory oversight and approvals such as:
- The National Offshore Petroleum Safety and Environmental Management Authority (NOPSEMA)
- Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA)
- Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water (DCCEEW)

- Enjoy working in a fast-paced environment
