Sparrows Group has secured a three year contract to deliver fixed crane maintenance and lifting and rigging services for the INPEX-operated Ichthys liquefied natural gas (LNG) project in Australia.

The agreement is the latest in a series of ‘significant business wins’ for Sparrows, according to the company, and will see its teams in Perth and Darwin, Australia, support activities across the Ichthys onshore LNG facility at Bladin Point, the offshore central processing facility Ichthys Explorer and the Ichthys Venturer FPSO.

The work scope encompasses maintenance, servicing and inspection of lifting equipment and cranes, the supply of lifting equipment, spare parts and materials and technical and engineering support.

“We have experienced a very positive first quarter, securing a number of contracts for high-profile, large-scale projects in the onshore, offshore and renewables sectors around the globe,” Stewart Mitchell, chief executive officer of Sparrows, said in a company statement.

“The Ichthys LNG Project incorporates some of the world’s biggest and most advanced offshore facilities off the Western Australian coast and massive onshore processing facilities in the Northern Territory. We are extremely proud to be awarded this work,” he added.

Ichthys is expected to produce 8.9 million tons of LNG and 1.6 million tons of LPG per annum, in addition to more than 100,000 barrels of condensate per day at peak.

The value of the Ichthys contract, which is for three years plus two one year options, was not disclosed.
