In Alberta, we are delivering major projects in heavy oil production and mineable oil sands for Nexen, Devon, Suncor, Statoil and MEG Energy, Total and Shell. We are also currently working on the first three expansions of Shell’s Albian project, with construction completions scheduled from 2009 to 2017.
To carry the increased production to markets, Calgary and Edmonton offices are completing major pipelines projects for Enbridge, TransCanada Pipelines and Suncor. Calgary and Toronto offices are currently engaged in the delivery of the resulting downstream projects with Consumer Co‑Op and Suncor.
Demand for Improve services continues to be strong, including longstanding relationships with Syncrude, Petro-Canada, Shell, Suncor, Imperial Oil and Talisman; newer alliances with BP and TransCanada Pipelines; and emerging opportunities for new plants as they complete construction.
Our Power business in Edmonton, Calgary, Toronto and Vancouver continues to grow. Current projects include EPCM services for EPCOR and TransAlta; engineering services for OPG Nuclear Waste Management Division, Plutonics Power’s Run of River and Bruce Power; and a variety of projects using combined cycle steam technology and simple cycle gas turbines.
In Minerals & Metals, commodity demand continues to drive high levels of activity in our Toronto office and is helping diversification into Edmonton. Current projects include the Mopani Isaconvert Smelter upgrade, Inco Thompson Emissions Reduction project, and the Sherritt Corefco Project being executed in Edmonton.
The Infrastructure market remains strong, especially in support of resource projects. The addition of WorleyParsons Westmar to the Canadian region dramatically increases our capacity to pursue resource and public infrastructure projects domestically and overseas.
Environmental, remediation, monitoring and water resources services continue to be in strong demand across the region, allowing good opportunities for geographic diversification.
