Over a two-year period, the group's oil and gas division will be working on metals and minerals projects in Australasia, while its underground mining platform will join in to develop a copper mine in Mongolia.

"In the context of a constrained oil and gas market over the past four years, emphasis has been placed on complementary growth markets such as Australasia's metals and minerals and infrastructure sectors, previously well serviced by the oil and gas platform," the company said.

"These project awards are a demonstration of the platform's ability to secure project opportunities in complementary markets."
