Two Greenpeace activists have been charged following a protest on Woodside Energy’s Scarborough floating production unit off Western Australia, Splash247 reports, citing a joint statement from Australian authorities.

The report says two men, aged 48 and 52, were charged with interfering with offshore petroleum operations. Charges are allegations; the report does not establish a conviction.

Woodside said it paused pre-commissioning work after the unauthorised boarding. Greenpeace described the protest as peaceful and directed against the separate Browse gas proposal.
