Wood Group wins $40m contract with ExxonMobil Chemical

The services include the detailed design and site construction of the process control systems for which Wood Group completed the front-end engineering design in 2015.

Wood Group is currently providing process control systems detailed engineering, procurement and fabrication services for ExxonMobil Chemical’s multi-billion dollar expansion project at the Baytown and Mont Belvieu plants near Houston. Much of the work done for that project will be used for this new project, applying a design-one, build-two concept that helps to reduce project costs and schedules.

Chief executive Robin Watson said: “Wood Group’s global experience delivering automation and control solutions for large-scale projects will help to ensure a safe, cost-effective and efficient process control solution for this new petrochemical facility. We look forward to continuing our long, successful history of executing notable projects with ExxonMobil Chemical.”
