- Lunskoye-A offshore platform (LUN-A)
- Onshore processing facilities including Booster stations 1 and 2
- Liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant
- Oil export terminal (OET)

Effective immediately, the five year contract, with two, one year extension options will be delivered by Wood Group’s engineering team based in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk on Sakhalin Island and supported by the company’s offices in Australia, Norway, China and the UK.
A major feature of the TSS contract will be a new working relationship between Wood Group and a Russian Design Institute (RDI), Gasproektengineering AOJSC (GPE). GPE is a Gazprom company with over 1000 employees in the Russian Federation and headquarters in Voronezh, approximately 470 kilometres south of Moscow. Over the term of the contract GPE will play a significant and growing role in supporting service delivery, working closely with Wood Group across the range and scope of services and asset base.
