Construction multinational Murray & Roberts’ (M&R’s) Perth-based subsidiary Clough and Baltimore-based subsidiary CH-IV have secured contracts in the oil and gas sectors in Korea and the US.

“We are very pleased with these awards, considering the low oil price and current pressure on the global oil and gas market,” M&R CEO Henry Laas said in a statement on Wednesday.

Shipbuilder Samsung Heavy Industries awarded Clough a contract for hook-up services on the Ichthys liquefied natural gas (LNG) project’s central processing facility.

The scope of work included the preparation and execution of offshore hook-up activities and assistance to commissioning. Project management would be executed from Clough's office in Perth, with technical support provided by Clough’s Korean joint venture, CloughCoens.

“The Ichthys LNG project follows on a strong relationship with Japanese oil
group INPEX over many years, as well as investment into the development of Clough’s hook-up capability and implementing key productivity tools and processes to reduce cost and deliver greater certainty of project outcome for clients,” said Laas.

CH-IV International was, meanwhile, selected as owner’s engineer for Eagle LNG Partners’ LNG production and export facility on Zoo Parkway, in Jacksonville, Florida. 

As owner’s engineer, CH-IV would be responsible for the engineering required for completion of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission application. 

“The CH-IV project may not be material from a contract value point of view, but it is another successful bid in the owner’s engineering space in the US,” noted Laas.
