Engineering and property services company United Group Limited (UGL) is pleased to announce a contract with Woodside to carry out construction services at the $12 million Pluto liquefied natural gas (LNG) Project. UGL Resources, a subsidiary of UGL, has secured the contract valued at approximately $230 million, to install major process modules and fabricate and interconnecting structural steel and pipe work for the LNG train at Pluto. The bulk of the contract is expected to run for 15 months beginning April 2009.

UGL Managing Director and CEO Richard Leupen said “We are pleased to be involved in the Pluto LNG Project given its importance to Australia’s economy and Woodside’s target of making it the fastest developed LNG plant to date. UGL Resources’ expansion in LNG is particularly timely given indications that this sector will remain an area of significant long term development in Australia and overseas.”
