Wood Group has been awarded a five-year contract by Nexen, worth US$150 million.

Extending a contract in place since April 2010, Wood Group PSN (WGPSN) will continue to deliver operations, maintenance and technical support across Nexen’s North Sea offshore assets; the Buzzard, Scott and Golden Eagle platforms.

More than 190 jobs are retained under the contract, which is effective immediately and builds on Wood Group’s 12-year relationship with Nexen on the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS). 

This is the third contract extension WGPSN has secured in the UKCS this year.  In April, the company announced a two year contract with TAQA, extending its provision of engineering, construction and maintenance services to five UKCS offshore assets. In February WGPSN secured an extension to continue to support Chevron Upstream Europe across four offshore assets in the North Sea.
