“As an Australian company operating globally, we look forward to continuing to service the Canadian energy and resources market.”

In April this year, Worley said it laid off 5% of its employees, reducing its number of staff to 56,000 as of 31 March, and secured an extra $465m in loans.

The layoffs announcement came after the Australian firm said it was in a redundancy consultation process with its North Sea team but did not reveal how many jobs are at risk.

In March 2018, WorleyParsons (now Worley) secured two project management consultancy (PMC) contracts in the Middle East.
