UK pipeline engineering specialist STATS Group has secured a pipeline isolation services contract from Australian oil and gas major Santos.

The contract will cover all the assets of the oil and gas major in Queensland and South Australia, including its pipelines and facilities in the Cooper Basin and Port Bonython.
