Today, 21 March, we celebrated Harmony Day - a time to come together, embrace diversity and strengthen connections that make our workplace unique. Many of our locations joined in celebrations today, with more to follow soon.     A special shoutout to those who brought in culturally significant dishes—your generosity and the stories behind your traditions made the event even more meaningful.   At Beach, diversity isn't just celebrated - it's part of who we are.    #HarmonyDay #DiversityInclusion

Having worked for 20 years in the Cooper Basin, Beach employee Trevor was well-versed in the challenges of working out bush. In late 2024, Trevor woke up "not feeling 100 per cent," which escalated into a stabbing pain under his rib cage and across his chest. Tests confirmed he was likely having a heart attack and needed urgent treatment in Adelaide, over 800km away. Our partnership with the Royal Flying Doctor Service of Australia (SA/NT) has been saving lives since 2004, and we're proud to support their life-saving missions. Their presence provides our people and their loved ones with the reassurance that, if ever needed, they will be there.

Today, representatives from Beach were proud to attend the Adelaide International Women's Day Breakfast, joining over 3,000 others in recognition of the achievements of women and the importance of gender equality. Tickets were also made available for members of our team to join virtually so that everyone had the opportunity to hear from this year’s inspiring speakers. This year’s theme, March Forward, marks 30 years since the Beijing Declaration, a reminder of how far we’ve come and the steps still ahead. Senator the Hon. Penny Wong, guest speaker Rachel Perkins, and Alexis McKay, Chair of Adelaide International Women's Day breakfast committee, all shared their thoughts and insights on the progress made, the power of love in driving change, and how small, collective actions—just 1% at a time—can create a lasting impact. At Beach, we are committed to fostering an inclusive workplace and supporting the advancement of women in our industry and beyond. Progress towards gender equality is more than just an acknowledgement of International Women’s Day. #IWD2025 #MarchForward

Happy birthday for tomorrow, to our founder Reg Sprigg! The late Mr Sprigg was born on 1 March in 1919 at Stansbury, on South Australia's Yorke Peninsula. A former student of the renowned explorer and geologist Prof Douglas Mawson, Mr Sprigg went on to achieve great things throughout his career, but none more important (in our opinion) than founding Beach in the early 1960s. A highly regarded Australian oilman, geologist, explorer and conservationist, Mr Sprigg displayed the true pioneer spirit which Beach draws inspiration from to this very day.

Our 2024-25 Vacation Student Program has recently wrapped up, and what an incredible 12 weeks it has been! Our talented vacation students had the unique opportunity to work on challenging and interesting projects within our business. They also had opportunities to explore the Drill Core Library, a couple participated in a geo field trip and all embarked on an unforgettable field trip to the Cooper Basin. These hands-on experiences have provided them with invaluable insights into the energy industry and a chance to apply their knowledge in real-world settings. A huge thank you to all our students for their hard work and enthusiasm. We can't wait to see where your careers take you next! #VacationProgram | Alexander Magarey | Emilia Tokareff | Frederick Oliver | Jessenia Bursill | William Hentschke

Beach is proud to be a community partner with Nature Foundation since 2012. Through our community partnership, we have been able to support the Kids on Country program.   In 2024, a documentary filmmaker joined the Kids on Country team and students and teachers on a five-day camp at Witchelina Nature Reserve in remote northern South Australia and captures the journey of a group of Aboriginal young people experiencing this life-changing program. The heartfelt and inspiring documentary, "Kids on Country," has been acquired by National Indigenous Television (NITV) and will be screened and streamed on Special Broadcasting Service (SBS) Australia On Demand from 1 March 2025!   Members of Beach’s Community Team in South Australia were honoured to recently attend the film premiere.   Beach Energy's First Nations Engagement Manager, Candice Nayda said: “This program not only fosters a deep respect for nature and conservation but also encourages students to engage in their education with renewed purpose”.   “We are proud of our partnership with Nature Foundation as together we aim to promote sustainable land management and conservation through meaningful environmental education and community engagement”.   Watch the trailer for this inspiring journey of Aboriginal young people as they connect to Country, culture, and conservation in Nature Foundation's Kids on Country Junior Ranger Program. #CommunityPartnership | Phil Jones | Lucille Bailey
