Wood has secured a two-year contract extension valued at up to A$100 million (US$65 million) with Woodside Energy. The contract involves continuing to provide brownfield engineering, procurement, and construction management (EPCM) services for offshore assets within the North West Shelf (NWS) project in Western Australia.

Project Scope and Objectives

The work under this extension will focus on delivering asset modifications across key NWS offshore facilities. The primary objectives of these modifications are to enhance production, improve reliability, and extend the operational longevity of the assets. The specific facilities covered include the North Rankin Complex, the Goodwyn A platform, and the Okha floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel.

Project Execution and Team

The contract will be executed by a team of 140 Wood employees based in Perth, Western Australia. This local team will be supported by the company's global engineering network to deliver the services.

Strategic Value and Historical Context

The North West Shelf project is described as one of the world's largest and most mature liquefied natural gas (LNG) developments, with a long history of supplying energy. Wood has held this contract since 2013, and over this period, the teams have developed extensive, asset-specific knowledge and an understanding of Woodside's operational priorities. This deep insight positions Wood to not only ensure safe and reliable operations but also to identify and implement smarter methods for improving productivity, reducing costs, and optimizing overall performance.
