In May, Wood Group entered a new one-year contract with Chevron Australia to provide subsea integration and flow assurance front-end engineering design (FEED) services for the Jansz-lo compression project offshore of Western Australia. This project will maintain gas supply to the existing Gorgon LNG facility. Wood will serve as system integrator of the technology, providing independent flow assurance, subsea design and construction engineering support during the FEED process. This will be the first Australian project to use subsea compression technology. In 2017, Wood signed a global master services agreement with Chevron that enables the company to deliver conceptual engineering, pre-FEED, FEED detailed design and procurement services in multiple locations across the operator’s global onshore and offshore asset portfolio.
