Muscat - Carillion Alawi has signed a four-and-half-year contract extension for Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) to continue the provision of integrated facilities management services at twelve locations across Oman.
The contract extension is worth £240mn, the UK-based Carillion plc said in a statement on its website.
Carillion Alawi began working in partnership with PDO in July 2013 to deliver an integrated facilities management service, focused on providing safe, cost effective services across the PDO concession estate.
The range of services being delivered by Carillion Alawi comprises engineering maintenance, projects, catering and environmental services, including cleaning, housekeeping, pest control, landscaping and linen and laundry services.
Under the contract extension, which will begin this month, Carillion Alawi will continue to focus on delivering safe, cost effective services by driving cost reduction and efficiency through reducing waste, improving productivity and reshaping service delivery, Carillion plc said.
Carillion chief executive, Richard Howson, said, "We are delighted to have secured the contract extension for PDO that reflects the strong partnership we have developed with PDO."
Howson added, "The contract also reinforces our commitment to supporting PDO through the efficient management and operation of its critical infrastructure, using our sector leading ability to provide facilities management services to the oil and gas sector across the Middle East, including operating in the challenging desert environment where the vast majority of PDO's assets are located."
