London, 18 June 2009 - Kentz Corporation Limited (LSE: KENZ), the holding 
company of the Kentz engineering and construction group,  in a joint venture 
with its Australian partners Decmil Pty Ltd and Thiess Pty Ltd (TDKJV), has been 
contracted to design and construct a construction village on Barrow Island for 
Chevron Australia Pty Ltd. The contract value is approximately AUS$500 million.

government approvals and following a final investment decision on the Chevron 
operated Gorgon Project from the Gorgon Joint Venture participants, expected in

Kentz CEO Hugh O'Donnell said the facility was expected to accommodate as many 
as 3,300 construction workers and that all materials for the project will be 
shipped to the remote island from Dampier in the North West of Australia aboard 
landing craft transport.   
  
Kentz is providing the overall construction village engineering and design and 
the supply of all offshore procurement.   
  
Thiess will provide project management, local procurement and construction 
services for civil and buildings. Decmil will provide project management, local 
procurement and construction services for mechanical works.  
  
The Gorgon Project is a joint venture between the Australian subsidiaries of 
Chevron (Operator), ExxonMobil and Shell, to develop the Greater Gorgon gas 
fields, located between 130km and 200km off the north-west coast of Western 
Australia. The Greater Gorgon gas fields contain resources of about 40 trillion
