Fossil energy – support services
Industrial services firm Altrad has landed a multi-million pound contract with Shell for the provision of critical support services in the Southern North Sea.
The deal covers the oil and gas supermajor’s Clipper and Leman Alpha offshore gas platforms, as well as the Bacton gas processing plant near Great Yarmouth, England.
Off the back of the £24m contract, which gets underway this month, Altrad will permanently employ 80 new workers, rising to 120 during peak activity.
