Gassco is pleased to announce the award of a three-year contract for engineering, procurement and management services to Wood Group Norway as.
The contract will see Wood work closely with Gassco to renovate the gas receiving facilities through the provision of engineering, procurement and construction management services across the Easington (UK), Zeebrügge (Belgium), Dunkerque (France), Dornum (Germany), and Emden (Germany) gas receiving terminals.
Combined, these terminals receive around 100 billion cubic meters (bcm) of natural gas from the Norwegian Continental Shelf annually, meaning they are critical to ensure safe, secure and efficient energy supply to Europe in the face of increasing demand.
“We are looking forward to working with Wood and think it will be a good match based on their european presence in close proximity to our terminals, and also their previous experience and good track record from similar work on Norwegian Gassco operated terminals”, says Dag Olav Sæverud, Gassco's Project Manager.
“We are delighted to grow our relationship with Gassco and expand our operational footprint in Europe with this award which further propels our geographical and portfolio diversification”, says Craig Shanaghey, Wood’s President of Operations in Europe, Middle East and Africa.
