This is the second in a series of evidence-based reports on the role of large engineering contractors in strengthening the positive local economic and social impacts of capital investment projects in the oil and gas sector in developing countries.  The first report looked at the operations in a low-middle income economy - the Philippines.  This report looks at the asset support services of AMEC and its joint venture partner to an offshore gas development project in Timor-Leste; a low income economy with poor literacy and skill levels, an undeveloped private enterprise sector, limited physical infrastructure and weak government capacity.
