| Amec wins contracts with Fairfield and Southern Company British construction giant Amec has been awarded a contract with Fairfield Energy Limited to provide a range of consultancy services that are integral to the acquisition of the Dunlin assets. Fairfield Energy Ltd has recently entered into exclusive negotiations with Shell UK and Esso Exploration and Production UK to acquire their combined 56.8 % interest in the Dunlin and Dunlin Southwest fields, 97.6 % interest in the Merlin field and 100 % interest in the Osprey field in the Northern North Sea. Amec's scope for the consultancy services, over the coming months, will comprise assisting Fairfield with the management of the asset transition and controlled migration into production operations. Fairfield has also entered into exclusive negotiations to enter into a contract with Amec for the provision of 'Duty Holder' services in relation to the assets. Amec also announced that US power generator Southern Company has awarded it a contract to install new clean-air systems on two 865-megawatt coal-fired boilers in Georgia. The contract will see AMEC construct a new scrubber system designed to remove sulfur dioxide from the existing coal-fired boilers' emissions. Completion is scheduled for May 2009; however, AMEC will remain on site to support Southern Company during system startup and commissioning. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Construction News :: home page |
