NORTH SYDNEY, Australia – Chevron Australia has contracted Worley to provide engineering and construction management services for the Jansz-Io Compression (J-IC) project.

Worley will provide detailed engineering, design and construction management services for the J-IC project’s power transmission and communication components. The contract follows the company’s successful completion of the pre-FEED and FEED phases of the project.

The services will be executed by Worley’s Perth office with support from its Global Integrated Delivery team.

Part of the original development plan for the Chevron-operated Gorgon project, J-IC will use subsea compression technology to maintain long-term natural gas supply from the Jansz-Io field to the three existing LNG trains and domestic gas plant on Barrow Island.

The Jansz-Io gas field is about 200 km (124 mi) offshore northwestern Australia and supplies the Gorgon natural gas facility on Barrow Island. The Gorgon project is a joint venture between the Australian subsidiaries of Chevron (47.3%), ExxonMobil (25%), Shell (25%), Osaka Gas (1.25%), Tokyo Gas (1%), and JERA (0.417%).
