ASX Announcement

Bhagwan Marine Advances Decommissioning
Strategy with Barrow Island Contract
Leading Australian marine solutions company, Bhagwan Marine Limited (ASX: BWN) (Bhagwan or the
Company), is pleased to announce it has been awarded a strategic contract from a major oil & gas
client for the removal of oil tanker moorings and navigation buoys at Barrow Island, Western Australia.
The contract represents an important entry point into a broader offshore decommissioning program
associated with legacy infrastructure in the region.
The scope for the removal of oil tanker moorings and navigation buoys provides Bhagwan with the
opportunity to showcase its proven capability, positioning the Company strongly as operators progress
subsea and shallow-water decommissioning programs.
The removal methodology being developed has the potential to establish a repeatable solution for the
broader nearshore and shallow-water decommissioning infrastructure. Major offshore oil and gas
operators have similar legacy infrastructure profiles requiring removal.
Since commercial completion of the TVI project, Bhagwan has continued to build its decommissioning
track record through additional support contracts, including Northern Endeavour operations in the
Timor Sea together with the Harriet Alpha platform and the Angel platform, both in offshore Western
Australia.
As set out in Bhagwan’s Prospectus, decommissioning is expected to become an increasingly
important component of Bhagwan’s business.
Comment from Managing Director
Bhagwan Marine Founder and Managing Director Loui Kannikoski said:
“Over recent years, we have positioned Bhagwan to capture the long-term opportunity emerging in
offshore decommissioning across Australia’s Northwest Shelf, Northern Australia basins and the Bass
Strait region. This award reinforces that strategy and reflects confidence in our ability to deliver safe,
practical and cost-effective solutions in complex environments.”
This ASX announcement has been authorised for release by the Board of Bhagwan Marine Limited.
