Petrofac Awarded Well Project Management Contract on New Zealand’s North Island

Petrofac’s Engineering and Production Services business has strengthened its presence in Australasia following the award of a Well Project Management contract from Tamarind Taranki Ltd (Tamarind). The agreement involves the provision of well project management services for Tamarind’s Tui Phase 3 drilling project in New Zealand’s North Island.

In line with the contract scope, Petrofac’s Well Engineering team will provide detailed well design and planning, subsea support, HSE management, and logistics for the Tui oilfields, located West of Taranaki.

Tamarind acquired ownership of the Tui oilfields earlier this year. The Phase 3 drilling project is part of a wider strategy to prolong the life of the Tui field beyond 2019.
