MILAN (Reuters) – Italian energy group Saipem said on Friday its 50-50 joint venture with engineering company Clough had signed a new engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract for the Perdaman Urea Plant in Australia worth around $2.7 billion.

The agreement replaces the one previously announced at the end of 2020 – which was worth $2.4 billion but was removed from Saipem’s backlog at the end of March 2022 – and reflects the recently changed market scenario, Saipem added.
