The collaboration with Marathon Oil in Equatorial Guinea follows a contract from the National Oil Company of Equatorial Guinea, GEPetrol, valued at approximately $350m (£281.26m) over five years, for technical services in Block B.  

This contract includes a variety of services for onshore bases, a floating, production, storage and offloading unit, as well as a platform. 

In addition to the Equatorial Guinea contracts, Petrofac secured a $200m agreement with Turkmenistan’s state-owned Turkemengas for the Galkynysh gas field in March this year.
