US supermajor Chevron has awarded a contract for its Tigris and Anchor developments in the Gulf of Mexico.
Wood Group will provide topsides conceptual and pre-FEED for the two semisubmersible platforms which will operate in 4,000 to 5,000 feet of water about 140 miles off Louisiana.
The companies have worked together in the Gulf of Mexico before on projects including Jack and St Malo and Blind Faith.
The contract was awarded as part of a 10 year master services agreement which will see Wood Group providing conceptual engineering, pre-FEED, FEED and design and procurement services in locations across Chevron’s onshore and offshore portfolio.
Wood Group chief executive Robin Watson said: “The MSA and Gulf of Mexico contracts continue our strong relationship with Chevron and demonstrate the quality of our people, our capability and our long track record of successful delivery to this key client.
“We have in excess of 30 years of experience in deepwater developments for a broad range of customers, from concept to closure. The amalgamation of this knowledge and experience will be brought to bear for Chevron for an optimal solution.”
