Petrofac supports GDF Suez in UK operations
Petrofac has extended its relationship with GDF Suez E&P UK, with the renewal of its Integrated Services Contract (ISC).
The contract covers operations, maintenance and engineering services support to GDF Suez E&P UK throughout its operations in the UKCS (UK Continental Shelf), including Cygnus, the largest gas field discovery in the Southern North Sea, for 25 years.
The frame contract is for a period three years and combines the services available in two existing contracts - ISC and Engineering Services Contract – both originally awarded in 2011. It will initially continue to support Cygnus Operations Readiness, followed by the provision of operations and maintenance services for the Cygnus asset offshore.

Walter Thain, Senior Vice President Europe, Petrofac Offshore Projects & Operations, commented: “We’ve worked very effectively with GDF Suez E&P UK to help bring Cygnus Operations to this point and we’re delighted to be extending the length of our relationship at what is a very exciting time for everyone involved.
“Our immediate shared focus continues to be on Operations Readiness support ahead of Cygnus which is targeted for first gas next year. GDF Suez E&P UK also has ambitious longer-term plans and we look forward to supporting them with our integrated service offering across all their activities in the UKCS.”
GDF Suez E&P UK currently holds interests in approximately 50 licences in the North Sea.
