SYDNEY, April 1 AAP - Australia's biggest engineering company, WorleyParsons Ltd (ASX:WOR) bought US-based deepwater oil and gas engineering specialist INTEC for $US108.5 million ($A118.49 million) to take advantage of the growth in offshore energy exploration.

WorleyParsons acquired the Houston-headquartered INTEC from privately-owned Heerema Group at a price equivalent to 9.5 times earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation for the 12 months ended December 31.

The acquisition will be funded by debt, Sydney-headquartered WorleyParsons said in a statement to the Australian Securities Exchange today.

Worley Parsons said global expenditure on offshore oil and gas was expected to grow to about $US250 billion per year by 2010, and the sector would continue to grow as operators pushed into deeper waters in search of energy deposits.
