Stork, part of Fluor’s Diversified Services segment, was awarded a contract extension by Centrica Storage Ltd to continue providing fabric maintenance and associated services for the company’s UK onshore and offshore oil and gas assets.
“Stork is extremely pleased to deepen our long-term relationship with Centrica in the UK by providing services to extend the life and efficiency of its assets in the northeast of England,” said Taco de Haan, Stork’s president.
Centrica Storage produces and processes gas from the Rough gas field in the Southern North Sea, 18 miles off the East Yorkshire coast on behalf of Centrica plc, an international energy and services company.
The contract extension took effect in June and sees Stork secure its first evergreen contract in the UK that will automatically renew each year with an annual review of performance. Stork’s scope of work to ensure the reliability of assets includes specialist access systems including scaffolding, integrity engineering, nondestructive testing, bolting services, advanced online desanding, as well as surface preparation and coatings.
The assets included in the contract are Easington Gas Terminal, East Yorkshire, and offshore platforms in the Rough gas field, which is located in the Southern North Sea.
Stork has been providing maintenance services at Centrica UK on a fixed-term contract since 2009.
