Australian contractor Worley has secured a construction and site maintenance services agreement from synthetic crude oil producer Syncrude Canada.

The agreement means Worley will provide services at Syndcrude’s Canadian hydrocarbon facilities over a period of five years.

The deal extends the Australian contractor’s 29-year relationship with Syncrude Canada.

Worley’s field services team will provide services for bitumen production, bitumen processing, upgrader, extraction, and exchanger units within the facilities.

The field services team of the company will execute the work in collaboration with Worley’s Canadian and global untegrated delivery offices.

Worley CEO Chris Ashton said: “We are pleased to continue supporting Syncrude and to build upon our long-term relationship.

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.
