Swiber has landed a $100m engineering, procurement, installation and construction (EPIC) contract with a South Asian national oil company.

Under the contract, Swiber will provide services such as installation works of pipelines and subsea. It plans to begin the work with immediate effect and expects it to close in the first half of 2017.

Swiber group CEO and president Francis Wong said: "We are pleased to have clinched yet another project for our long-time and valued client.

"Despite challenging market conditions, we believe that our strategy of establishing long-term relationships with our clients has paid off."

Earlier this month, the company said it completed a platform and subsea pipeline installation project for a South American oil and gas company.
