WDS Grabs GLNG Contract, Australia

WDS Limited announced that its Energy Division has won contract work with a total value exceeding $50M, for delivery in the current financial year. Two of the contracts are with Santos Limited (GLNG Project) and Vale (Carborough Downs Coal Mine).

WDS is celebrating ten years of service delivery to Santos Limited with the roll-over of the Construction Services Agreement for Appraisal and Pre Development services for the GLNG Project.

WDS’ Energy Division will be a Principal Contractor to the GLNG Project and will carry out field installation of appraisal gathering systems for the connection of Coal Seam Gas (CSG) wells in GLNG’s Surat Basin gas fields. WDS’ work scope is multi-disciplined and will include civil, mechanical, electrical and instrumentation aspects of the management and construction of field and trunk pipelines and CSG wellhead connections.

WDS Managing Director and CEO Mr Terry Chapman said: “These two contracts continue our strong client relationships and delivery performance across the Coal Seam Gas and Coal sectors. In addition our Energy business has received contracts for Wellhead Lease and Gas Compression fabrication works for both Arrow Energy and QGC as well as a 12 month extension of the lease to Fluor of our 265 room Fairview Construction Camp.

“These contracts exceed $50M in contract value and will all be delivered over the current financial year. This lends further strength to our forecast of modest growth in profit for FY14, as indicated to the market at our full year results announcement in August.”
