What a great afternoon connecting with the Dongara Denison community! ๐ŸŒŸ

On Friday, 29 May, Mitsui E&P Australia (MEPAU) and joint venture partner Beach Energy welcomed Dongara Denison community members to a showcase of the Waitsia Gas Plant, giving attendees the opportunity to learn more about the Waitsia and its operations.

Following an introduction at the Irwin Recreation Centre, attendees visited the Waitsia Gas Plant viewing area, where MEPAU Vice President HSE & Operated Assets, Tim Meehan, shared insights into the facility and responded to questions from the group. The visit sparked engaging discussion and provided a valuable opportunity to learn more about the plantโ€™s operations.

The day wrapped up with refreshments at the Denison Bowling Club, with conversations continuing between community members and the project team.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us. MEPAU appreciates your interest and looks forward to continuing to connect with the Dongara Denison community.

Since 2010, the Hollomby Foundation has distributed over $1 million in scholarships and bursaries, helping regional students access local study opportunities through the Geraldton Universities Centre.

Congratulations to all 2026 scholarship recipients!

Taking flight for the 2026 Great Cocky Count

NACC NRM will deliver BirdLife WAโ€™s Great Cocky Count across the Mid West on 12 April 2026, coordinating activities in the Shires of Irwin and Chapman Valley. The event forms part of the House and Home: Saving Native Species initiative, led by NACC NRM and sponsored by Mitsui E&P (MEPAU) and Beach Energy.

The program has already achieved several benefits. A critically endangered flowering bush in the Mid West has gone from a single known plant to multiple healthy seedlings, providing a vital food source for Carnabyโ€™s cockatoos. European honey bees have also been removed from tree hollows, creating more safe nesting spaces for the cockatoos.

Ahead of the count, NACC NRM hosted a Great Cocky Count workshop in Geraldton, led by Biodiversity Program Coordinator Jarna Kendle. BirdLife volunteers, including Alice Bishop and Heather Beswick, as well as Merryn Pryor, BirdLifeโ€™s WA Black Cockatoo Project Coordinator, joined the session to share knowledge and tips with participants.

The Great Cocky Count brings communities together across Western Australia, helping track Carnabyโ€™s cockatoo populations. With these birds raising only one chick per season, every observation is critical, giving volunteers a direct role in conservation efforts.

If you would like to take part in the 2026 count, you may follow this late registration link to sign up - https://birdlife.org.au/late-registrations/

Mitsui E&P Australia (MEPAU) joined the Year 12 Leadership Morning Tea. The event was hosted by the Clontarf Foundation in Perth. More than 70 partners attended, supporting students at this yearโ€™s Year 12 camp, themed โ€œSetting the Foundations for the Rest of Your Life.โ€

MEPAU had the opportunity to speak with Mid West students from Champion Bay Academy, who shared their aspirations for employment and further training, expressing their excitement about the future.

The morning started with an Acknowledgement of Country by Wayne Bromfield, an inspiring address from alumnus Tuanna Teio, and reflections from CEO Gerard Neesham on the Foundationโ€™s journey, the power of mentorship, and the achievements of the students.

MEPAU and our joint venture partner, Beach Energy, look forward to continuing to support students across Australia, including those in Geraldton and the Mid West academies.

Mitsui E&P Australia (MEPAU) was excited to attend the Women in Energy International Womenโ€™s Day event this year. The conversation focused on balance as fairness, not favouring one gender over another but removing the visible and invisible barriers that limit everyoneโ€™s potential.

Highlights included Dr. Linda Friedland on mental health and performance, who emphasised that even top leaders often carry hidden stress from balancing work and life. She shared the powerful RESET framework: Recovery, Energy Protection, Strength, Support, Transformation. The event also featured a diverse and inspiring panel, Kirsten Rose, Talar Anjer Koushian, Louisa Frome, and Pierre Yang, showcasing how collaboration and resilience drive meaningful progress.

This yearโ€™s theme, โ€œWhen we give, we gain,โ€ reminds us that generosity multiplies impact. By sharing knowledge, mentoring, and opportunities, we help women thrive.

Together, letโ€™s keep empowering and championing women while fuelling progress in energy and beyond.

Supporting the Dongara Horse Riding Club

The Dongara Horse Riding Club has installed new horse yards, funded by a $4,000 Mid West Community Grant sponsored by Mitsui E&P Australia and Beach Energy.

Built from durable materials like steel, concrete, and chain, the new yards provide a safer environment for horses, riders, and visitors. The new yards securely hold horses, providing children a dedicated space to tack up and handle their horse with confidence, helping everyone enjoy a safer and more comfortable riding experience.

Mid West Student Expo ๐Ÿ“š

Mitsui E&P Australia (MEPAU) participated in the Energy Club WAโ€™s 2025 Mid West Student Expo, welcoming over 100 regional students eager to explore the future of energy.

MEPAU hosted an interactive booth, where students explored a scaled model of the Waitsia Gas Plant and learned how one of Australiaโ€™s largest onshore gas fields operates locally. The team engaged in discussions with students on the growing energy mix, including the role of gas, wind, energy storage, batteries, and carbon capture.

Joining fellow exhibitors from across the region, it was inspiring to see studentsโ€™ enthusiasm for the wide range of opportunities in the evolving energy industry.
