Wood secures Gorgon LNG stage two job

Wood has extended its framework agreement with Chevron Australia to provide master contractor services to the Gorgon LNG stage two development located offshore Western Australia.

Effective immediately, the two-year contract extends an agreement in place since 2015 and will continue to be delivered by Wood’s Perth office, the company’s statement reads.

The scope of the agreement covers engineering, design, construction management, procurement, logistics, quality assurance, health, environment and safety management services for Chevron-operated onshore and offshore assets.

Wood’s team in Perth will continue to provide engineering design and logistics support to Gorgon LNG stage two.

The stage two entails the addition of additional wells and subsea infrastructure to the existing Gorgon and Jansz-Io gas fields to maintain future gas supply to the three existing LNG trains.

The Gorgon Project is operated by Chevron Australia and is a joint venture of the Australian subsidiaries of Chevron (47.3 percent), ExxonMobil (25 percent), Shell (25 percent), Osaka Gas (1.25 percent), Tokyo Gas (1 percent) and JERA (0.417 percent).
