Wood Group wins multiyear contract on Hibernia in Canada
HOUSTON, October 24, 2016 - Wood Group has secured a five-year contract to
provide engineering, procurement, construction and maintenance services to the
Hibernia platform, offshore Newfoundland, from Hibernia Management and
Development Company Ltd. (HMDC). The contract will be executed by Wood Group's
Eastern Canada operations, in St. John's, Newfoundland & Labrador, and has the
potential of two additional five-year contract extensions.
Michele McNichol, CEO for Wood Group's Asset Life Cycle Solutions business in
the Western Hemisphere, said: "Since first oil in 1997, Wood Group has been the
incumbent contractor for many of these services on the Hibernia platform. The
first producing field of Canada's East Coast, it has been a cornerstone of our
business in the region.
"This new contract demonstrates the confidence this key client has in our
team. Wood Group has provided a high level of service, retained specific
knowledge to the platform, and executed work safely with local talent - even in
the harshest of environments."
Wood Group is one of the largest brownfield engineering and construction
offices in Atlantic Canada with more than 500 people working onshore and
offshore. Currently, Wood Group executes EPC contracts on two of the three
production platforms located offshore Newfoundland.
