Along with its joint venture partner Tendrill International, Wood will deliver integrated, end-to-end brownfield EPC projects, from conceptual design through commissioning and start-up, across BSP’s offshore and onshore assets.
In addition to its five-year duration, the contract includes a two-year extension option.
Wood CEO Ken Gilmartin said: “This award strengthens our position as a trusted EPC partner in Brunei. For over a decade Wood has consistently delivered safe, reliable and efficient engineering and operations solutions to BSP, contributing to domestic energy security.
“Our experience of BSP’s assets enables us to advance asset performance while enhancing local skills development and creating opportunities for the regional supply chain.”
The TendrillWood JV employs approximately 1,000 people, 70% of which are Bruneian. Under the contract, the JV will continue to invest in the development of local expertise and the supply chain.
BSP is the largest oil and gas producer in Brunei Darussalam, contributing significantly to Brunei Darussalam’s daily oil and gas production.
Tendrill managing director Haryati Ramlee said: “This award marks a significant milestone for Tendrill and our joint venture with Wood. Our local expertise will complement Wood’s experience to deliver safe, efficient and result-driven outcomes for BSP while aligning to the national agenda to maximise local content, capacity development and long-term value creation for the country.
“Our joint venture brings world-class standard to local operations while ensuring our people, our communities and our industries continue to benefit.”
Wood has been subject to an extended takeover attempt by Dubai-based company Sidara, with the deadline for it to make definitive bid pushed back for a fourth time last week.
The company has had several international contract wins in recent months, covering Belgium, Oman and Iraq.
