I think you'll find Woodside are doing precisely that.
Peter Grant General Manager, Woodside Energy Ltd, Australia addressed last months 11th AFRICA OIL & GAS CONFERENCE 3 weeks ago in Nairobi Kenya re-confirming Woodsides committment to the leases/area for exploration.
Any drilling ideally has to occur in the 1st part of the year for tidal reasons so that would suggest that with Woodside finalising their anlaysis an announcment on the 2nd well should be imminent.
Dont expect any leaks as to when this will come. Neither GBP nor WPL suffer from that characteristic.
