Our story

Amplitude Energy is proud to source, develop and produce domestic natural gas that will bridge the gap between renewable energy supply and consumer demand in Australia's energy transition. We will continue to support energy continuity for Australian homes and essential services like hospitals, airports, schools, and manufacturers.

For decades, an affordable, reliable natural gas supply has fuelled Australian industry, powered the economy, and energised the Australian way of life. Natural gas will help to deliver on this expectation for years to come, driving our economy and supporting a consistent, reliable, and affordable energy supply.

Amplitude Energy is ASX listed, Australian-based, producing Australian gas for Australians, and supports regional Australians and local suppliers. We are committed to partnerships that bolster community life, building trust and goodwill.

As Australia’s first carbon-neutral* gas exploration and production company, we operate responsibly and ethically, maintaining our environment for future generations. Domestic firming power opportunities will become vitally important, with Amplitude Energy providing energy assurance to industry, homes, and the economy.

Company portfolio

Gas accounts for the major share of the company’s sales revenue, production and reserves.

Gas production

We supply gas for domestic and industrial use in South-east Australia from our operations at offshore Victoria in the Gippsland Basin (Sole gas field) and Otway Basin (Casino, Henry and Netherby gas fields).

Gas project development

The Athena Gas Plant in Victoria provides a low-cost processing hub for Otway Basin gas and we are analysing the opportunity for the development of new supply from discoveries such as Annie.

We acquired the Orbost Gas Processing Plant in 2022 to process natural gas from the Gippsland Basin (our existing Sole Gas assets) for the South-east domestic market.

Gas supply contracts

We have a growing portfolio of gas supply contracts. Our customers include AGL Energy, Alinta Energy, EnergyAustralia and VISY.

Gas exploration

We hold exploration permits and conduct exploration for competitive new sources of gas supply in South-east Australia. In 2020 this exploration resulted in the Annie gas discovery offshore Victoria and the Dombey gas discovery in the onshore Otway Basin, South Australia.

History

Incorporated as Cooper Energy in 2001 in response to a recognised demand for gas and oil.

Our company operations and the results they yielded were quickly recognised as a sound investment; we went on to be listed on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) on 13 March 2002.

Since then we have grown significantly and assembled a team of more than 100 with a plan to continue to deliver strong outcomes to our shareholders.

In 2024 at our AGM the Cooper Energy shareholders voted for a new brand and company name change to Amplitude Energy in support of the new strategy.
