-Sodexo, world Leader in Quality of Life services, today announced it has expanded two significant contracts with oil & gas clients Seadrill and Shell, confirming their confidence in Sodexo's deep sectoral knowledge, strong offering, and long-term partnership approach. The Seadrill contract spans 5 years with a total value of 200M€. The Shell contract represents 135M€ in annual revenue. Both expand Sodexo's global footprint in the offshore and onshore oil & gas industry and across the value chain on all of our clients' sites (upstream, midstream and downstream). These contract extensions are driven by the company's commitment to safety and performance, a world-class service culture, technical expertise and a holistic approach to Quality of Life.

Seadrill has been a client since 2008 and in that time Sodexo has expanded operations from beginning in Norway, Asia and Africa and spreading to the Americas, Brazil, Gulf of Mexico and the Middle East. Sodexo services over 90 percent of Seadrill's business in countries where the company operates. The extension will reinforce job stability in local communities, with the creation of more than 1,000 new jobs at the additional sites.

Sodexo's Global Framework Agreement with Shell extends the current contract period an additional 30 months, out to December 2020 with additional countries and sites  (Gabon, Argentina), as well as additional services added to scopes of work in the Philippines and the United Kingdom. The current contract includes installations in Europe, Africa, Latin America, Asia, and coming in Q4, Australia. The expansion is the direct result of Sodexo's successful delivery of a full package of services across a varied and dynamic global portfolio of sites. Shell embraces Sodexo's concept of Quality of Life, making it a cornerstone of Sodexo's service provision and a shared commitment.
