AusGroup Executive Chairman and Managing Director, Stuart Kenny said: "With our significant history in the downstream maintenance sector across Australia, I am proud that we can continue to work on some of the country’s premier oil and gas assets over the next five years.

The award of this contract further strengthens our position as an established maintenance services provider to the oil and gas sector within Australia by extending our broad base of recurring revenue streams."
