London, United Kingdom(10 January 2012) - AMEC, the international engineering and project management company, has been awarded two asset support contracts by chemical giant SABIC UK Petrochemicals Limited.

plant turnaround services for SABIC's petrochemicals

England. The award, an extension to an existing
contract,is for planning, preparation, execution and

SABIC's Aromatics, Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) and
Olefins plants.

Both contracts will be managed from AMEC's Wynyard

over 220 personnel in the North East and create up to 500
new jobs on the plant turnarounds.
"I am delighted that our successful delivery for SABIC
over the last five years - safely, on budget and to time
- has given us such an excellent relationship with this
valued customer," said John Pearson, Managing Director of
AMEC's Europe &West Africa business. "This latest
contract reinforces AMEC's position as the leading
provider of turnaround services to the UK's petrochemical
