NORTH SYDNEY, Australia – ExxonMobil Canada Properties has contracted WorleyParsons for the topsides on the Hebron project offshore Newfoundland and Labrador.

Previously WorleyParsons providedfront-end engineering and design services. ExxonMobil has now exercised its option to subsequently award detailed engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) services.

The Hebron oil and gas field is 350 km (217 mi) offshore from St. John’s.

WorleyParsons estimates its revenue under the EPC contract at $360 million over five years. The company will cooperate with Fluor to provide overall project management, with subcontracts to be awarded to various third parties, with a focus on assigning work in Newfoundland and Labrador.

CEO John Grill said the company would apply “our proven expertise in sub-Arctic floatover topsides.”
