Wood on Monday confirmed it had won new contracts on top of extensions and renewals to advise, design, execute and operate major energy and mining projects and infrastructure in Australia, Brunei Darussalam, Papua New Guinea, Singapore, Timor Leste and the Philippines.

The key regional energy sector scopes that the company added to its orderbook over the last year included:
