Our focus on long term client relationships is a key to our success. We have ongoing long term service agreements with clients such as BHP Billiton and CODELCO (the state‑owned copper company in Chile), which provide an important base of work for our local offices.
Our local presence is a key differentiator for our clients in the region. In addition to our existing offices in Santiago, Chile and in Port‑of‑Spain, Trinidad, we opened new offices in Sao Paulo, Brazil and in Mandeville, Jamaica. We will continue to evaluate opportunities to further develop our presence in the region, including regional high value engineering opportunities, as we have done in similar markets elsewhere.
Our local capabilities across sectors combined with our ability to workshare with offices outside our region are also a key differentiator that has enabled us to win major multi‑sector projects, such as mining and power, mining and infrastructure, and/or the combination of all three.
Furthermore, the Latin America and Caribbean region has contributed to major and mega‑project wins that are primarily being executed in the major execution hubs outside the region, and supported by our local offices. Examples are the contracts for the Petrobras COMPERJ project in Brazil and the Pequiven/Braskem Jose Olefins project in Venezuela. The recent addition of the INTEC capability has also increased our ability
