Worley partners with Australian government at Expo 2020 Dubai
Worley is partnering with the Australian government at Expo 2020 Dubai. Signing on as a Major Partner of the Australian Pavilion, Worley will help promote Australian innovation, creativity, and optimism to the world.
Held for the first time in the Middle East, the global mega event is expected to attract 25 million visits from over 190 countries.
Worley’s support for the Australian Pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai was formalised in Sydney when incoming Worley CEO Chris Ashton signed a partnership agreement with Australia’s Commissioner General for Expo 2020 Dubai, Justin McGowan.
Mr Ashton said Worley valued the opportunity to work with the Australian government to help promote the very best of Australian expertise and innovation to the world. “As a truly global company involved in delivering projects and providing expertise in engineering, procurement and construction, Worley has been operating across the Middle East region for over 50 years.
“Worley’s footprint in the region consists of 11 offices, 4500 employees and over 400 ongoing projects throughout Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
“We provide a full service offering to upstream, midstream and downstream customers across the region while our localization commitments continue across the Middle East. As the energy transition evolves in the Middle East, Worley will apply its new capacity and capability to bring market insight-based solutions to our customers.
“Expo 2020 Dubai will provide a global platform for Worley to showcase our credentials to the region and beyond. We look forward to also working with the Australian government to help promote Australia as a secure and stable destination for investment.”
