Australia's Santos logs nearly 2% fall in first-quarter sales revenue

Santos reported a 1.8% decline in first-quarter sales revenue, pressured by a temporary outage at the Barossa offshore gas project. A severe tropical cyclone on Australia's west coast also disrupted port operations, adding short-term operational headwinds. The update is modestly negative for the company but likely limited in broader market impact.
