SYDNEY - (August 8, 2017) - WorleyParsons Pty Ltd. (ASX: WOR) has entered into an agreement with Saudi Aramco to expand and develop WorleyParsons' In-Kingdom services to Saudi Aramco.

The agreement is part of Saudi Aramco's In-Kingdom Total Value Add (IKTVA) initiative that aims to double the company's procurement of locally produced energy-related goods and services to 70 percent of total spend by 2021.

'This agreement demonstrates WorleyParsons' dedication to supporting the Kingdom in developing human capital within engineering and project management. The partnership is supported by the significant investment the business has made in building the WorleyParsons Academy in Al-Khobar to transform career pathways for local Saudis,' said Andrew Wood, WorleyParsons CEO.
