Press Release 
 
7 April 2021 
 
USUSD700 MILLION FACILITY EXTENSIONS AGREED 
 
Petrofac ("Petrofac" or the "Group") is pleased to announce that it has extended USUSD700 million of its banking 
facilities, at its request, with the unanimous support of lenders. These extensions comprise a USUSD610 million 
extension of its existing revolving credit facility to 2 June 2022, with an option to extend for a further six months 
(1), and a USUSD90 million extension of its bilateral term facility with Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank to 1 April 2022 (2). 
The increase in margin on these facilities reflects market conditions and remains competitive. Existing financial 
covenants remain unchanged and will be tested on a quarterly basis. In line with our liquidity policy, the extended 
revolving credit facility includes a minimum liquidity covenant of USUSD100 million. The revised facilities of USUSD700 
million represent a reduction in facility size of USUSD450 million, in line with business requirements and reflecting the 
Group's transition to a capital light business model. Both facilities were due to be repaid or prepaid on or before 2 
June 2021. 
 
The extension of these facilities, together with the issue of GBP300 million in commercial paper under the Covid 
Corporate Financing Facility in February 2021, preserve the Group's strong liquidity position which was USUSD1.3 billion 
at 31 March (before the reduction in facility size announced in this release). The Group expects to report net debt of 
USUSD116 million as at 31 December 2020, better than expectations, and continues to target eliminating net debt as market 
conditions and contract awards recover. 
 
 
NOTES 
 1. The option to extend the revolving credit facility to 2 December 2022 is subject to the approval of lenders and is 
  up to a maximum of USUSD550 million. 
 2. The Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank facility included a prepayment obligation on 31 March 2021.
