UGL – a CIMIC Group company – has secured approximately $180 million worth of contracts for works in the mining sector in Western Australia and Queensland.

The contracts are going to be executed over a three-year period and scope of works will include mechanical, electrical, instrumentation and access services for maintenance, shutdowns and sustaining capital projects.

“These contract awards demonstrate UGL’s position as a market leader in the Australian mining industry for the delivery of maintenance and mechanical, electrical and instrumentation access services,” CIMIC Group Chief Executive Officer Michael Wright said.

The first contract will get UGL to provide multi-discipline services over three years for Alcoa across the Wagerup and Pinjarra sites in Western Australia.

In Queensland, the company will be undertaking maintenance, shutdown and project services across multiple sites and for a number of clients in the Bowen Basin.

“We are excited to be leveraging our 30 years of experience in the mining industry to support key organisations in the resources sector. Our strong working partnerships with leading mining organisations support UGL’s reputation for solid performance and safe delivery of maintenance and shutdown services,” UGL Managing Director Jason Spears said.
