Effective immediately, Wood Group PSN (WGPSN) will provide engineering, procurement and construction management services (EPCM) under the contract, which has the option of two, two year extensions.

Creating approximately 200 new positions, WGPSN will support the following platforms: Chirag, Central Azeri - production drilling quarters, Central Azeri - compression and water processing, East Azeri production drilling quarters, West Azeri- production drilling quarters, Deep Water Gunashli - drilling and utility quarters, Deep Water Gunashli - pressure compression and water utilities and Shah Deniz Stage 1.
