Wood Group has won a new five-year deal to provide subsea engineering services for an oil and gas project off the coast of Western Australia.

The five-year contract will see the Aberdeen-based firm support all operations of all subsea assets and the gas export pipeline of INPEX Australia's Ichthys LNG Project.

The deal, which includes two one-year extension options, continues Wood Group's 12-year support of the Ichthys LNG Project development; providing subsea engineering and project management services during the concept, front-end, and detailed engineering phases of the project.

The contact also follows on from the subsea integrity and maintenance services contract successfully completed in 2016.

We have applied our global expertise and technical capabilities to support the development for over a decade.

"Our focus will be applying our detailed knowledge and our extensive global experience of supporting subsea operations, to create value-driven solutions that assure the long-term integrity of the Ichthys LNG Project's subsea system."
