Engineering, Procurement & Construction (EPC) and Professional Services - Energy, Chemicals & Resources
Strategic Profile
The purchase of Jacobs ECR in April 2019 reduced revenue contribution from hydrocarbons to just over 50%, from a prior 75%-80% position, with metals and mining contributing 23% and infrastructure and chemicals the balance. In November 2023, Worley launched a refreshed brand direction, which included a new logo and a consolidation of its portfolio of subsidiaries, with Advisian, Chemetics, Comprimo, Cord, Intecsea, and Rosenberg all combined under the single Worley brand.
Cyborg Score Rationale
Worley demonstrates a strong market position as a leading global EPC provider with diversified exposure across hydrocarbons, renewables, and energy transition sectors. The 2019 Jacobs ECR acquisition significantly diversified the portfolio while generating ~$7.3B in TTM revenue. However, cyclical energy markets and post-acquisition integration challenges create headwinds.
