The Stybarrow oil project in Western Australia started production in November 2007.
The Stybarrow project involves a subsea development and a floating production, storage and offtake facility. The facility has a design production capacity of 80,000 barrels of oil a day and will have a storage capacity of 900,000 barrels.
The Stybarrow discovery is part of a new oil province in the deep waters off North West Cape, which includes Woodside's Enfield, Vincent and Laverda discoveries.
The Stybarrow FPSO was the second producing asset off the North West Cape, after the Nganhurra FPSO on the Enfield field.
