Clough AMEC wins $150m Timor Sea extension

The Clough AMEC joint venture has been awarded a two-year contract extension worth $150 million to continue to provide operations and maintenance services at ConocoPhillips' Bayu-Undan oil and gas facilities in the Timor Sea.

Bayu-Undan consists of a floating storage and offloading facility and three fixed platforms, a remote wellhead platform and a compression, utilities and quarter platform which is bridge-linked to a drilling, production and processing platform.

Gas from Bayu-Undan is piped to ConocoPhillips's Darwin LNG facility through a 500-kilometre pipeline, where it is processed and shipped to international markets.

ConocoPhillips operates the Bayu-Undan field in a joint venture together with Eni, Santos, INPEX, and Tokyo Timor Sea Resources.

Clough AMEC has provided operations and maintenance services at Bayu-Undan since July 2004, most recently securing a $100 million, two-year contract extension in 2011.
