Major safety milestones achieved this year have included three million hours without a recordable incident in our Kazakhstan operation and 1 million hours without a recordable incident since December 2004 on the Sakhalin Project in Russia.

In the Hydrocarbons sector our involvement continues in the ongoing mega‑projects in Kazakhstan for TengizChevroil and Agip KCO. Also of significance is the award of Petrom’s Vision 2010 project, involving the upgrade and expansion of the Petrobrazi refinery in Romania. This represents the third contract awarded to WorleyParsons in Romania within a six-month period at a time of increasing local market activity. In addition, the operation is mobilizing to provide pre‑feasibility engineering and management services for the Chemaweyaat project in Abu Dhabi; the world’s largest fully integrated chemical complex.

Our power operation continues its successful relationship with NEK in Bulgaria through the extension of our architect-engineer role into the project execution phase of the Belene nuclear power plant. We have also delivered a number of Select projects involving renewable energy (solar and wind), as well as in the nuclear and fossil fuels sectors.

Our Minerals & Metals business continues to grow and is delivering various capital sustaining projects in Moscow under an Improve alliance contract with Strategic Minerals Resources (SMR).

The Infrastructure and Environment business continues to expand having undertaken logistics studies for the Tambao Manganese mine in Burkina Faso and various EcoNomics™ projects for customers across the business.
