ExxonMobil awards gas project to WorleyParsons

Engineering firm WorleyParsons will be providing project management, engineering, procurement and construction services to ExxonMobil for its gas project in Alaska, USA.

The Australia firm won the contract, estimated to be worth more than $100 million, based on its 40-year experience in Arctic design and construction.

WorleyParsons’ contribution to the gas project will primarily be to manage the Point Thomson Initial Production System project, which is located on a remote field, including the construction of gas processing facilities.

In a statement issued late last week, the firm said if the project progressed as currently planned, WorleyParsons’ portion of reimbursable project services would be worth about $US115 million over five years.
