Mark Abbotsford

I am a recognised global energy industry leader with over two decades of international experience and deep networks. As Chief Commercial Officer at Woodside Energy, I lead the Marketing, Shipping, and Trading division accountable for marketing operations and logistics, sales, revenue maximisation and risk management across all commodity lines. I focus on capturing strategic opportunities in LNG and new energy markets, aligning with the company's mission to provide energy solutions delivering value to our shareholders, customers and other key stakeholders. In addition to leadership of Woodside’s global revenue book I am accountable for the development of Woodside’s growth portfolio leading our mergers and acquisitions, upstream commercial, exploration, and new energy ventures teams. Leveraging my expertise in LNG and upstream gas, I empower the organisation to remain competitive in a dynamic global market and build global, market focused capabilities within our commercial tram. Alongside my executive leadership responsibilities, I serve as a Non-Executive Director at the Asia Natural Gas & Energy Association, contributing to advancing the region's energy agenda. I also sit on the boards of Western Australia’s Chamber of Commerce helping to support doing business in Western Australia and GLX Digital, a leading technical and AI platform for commodity trading used globally.
