UK oil major Wood Group is cutting 200 jobs, likely due to a combination of decreased profits and a windfall tax on the oil and gas sector.
John Wood Group, the London-listed engineering and consulting firm, is witnessing a strong phase of expansion, leveraging growing investments in energy security and the shift towards cleaner fuels. The company's CEO, Ken Gilmartin, indicated on Friday that the firm is continuing to increase its global workforce with a focus on markets like the Middle East and North America.
"Signing of this contract is an important step forward in establishing our suite of long-term strategic partnerships across our North Sea assets," said Audrey Stewart, vice-president of supply chain at Harbour. Shares of Wood Group were trading up more than 1% at 0720 GMT, while Britain's largest North Sea oil and gas producer Harbour was up less than 1%.
