Wood has extended its framework agreement with Chevron Australia to provide master contractor services to the Gorgon 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 in Perth.

The scope of the agreement, which leverages Wood’s West Australian experience and technical expertise, covers engineering, design, construction management, procurement, logistics, quality assurance, health, environment and safety management services for Chevron-operated onshore and offshore assets.

Wood’s multi-disciplinary team in Perth will continue to provide engineering design and logistics support to Gorgon Stage Two.

Robin Watson, Wood’s chief executive, comments: “We continue to demonstrate our successful track record in delivering engineering, procurement, construction and front-end engineering design projects.

“Our extensive capabilities in providing robust safety, assurance and efficiencies combined with our significant local expertise position us uniquely to deliver technical services.

“We look forward to continuing to deliver our work scope and creating opportunities for the local industry and supply chain.”
