Murujuga Aboriginal Corporation Marine Environmental Science Capacity Building

In 2022, O2 Sea Country Science was engaged by Woodside for oversight of the Scarborough Dredge Baseline Water Quality Monitoring Program, and we were recently engaged for oversight of the Scarborough Dredge Implementation Water Quality Monitoring Program in 2023/24. 

O2’s Local Content Plan, developed in collaboration with ERM, led to the inclusion of the Murujuga Aboriginal Corporation (MAC) Rangers during the survey’s implementation.

Working alongside MAC, O2 has achieved the provision of marine sampling competency training, sea ranger engagement and the attainment of coxswain qualification for MAC Sea Rangers. A Heads of Agreement was also established to facilitate the long-term commercial capacity building with the Murujuga Aboriginal Corporation.
