San Donato Milanese/Italy – Clough and Saipem, in an equally shared (50/50) joint venture, have reached a new agreement with the client Perdaman Industries for the development of Perdaman Industries urea plant on the Burrup Peninsula, northwest of Karratha, on the coastline of Western Australia.

The agreement replaces the one previously announced on 30 December 2020 - which was removed from Saipem’s backlog at the end of March 2022 - and reflects the changed market scenario which has developed globally in recent months. The new contract value is around 2.7 billion dollars (share of each JV participant 1.35 billion dollars) with further risk and reward provisions to provide flexibility to manage any potential further deterioration in market conditions.
