John Wood - Pre close trading update

Wood Group, the international energy services company, issues the following
pre-close trading update for the year to 31 December 2011. Full year results
for the year will be announced on 6 March 2012.

Overall, the Group expects to deliver good growth, with performance for the
year in line with expectations.

Conditions in oil & gas markets remain strong, with commodity prices at
favourable levels for our customers. We are not witnessing any material change
in customer behaviour as a consequence of volatility in financial markets, and
we remain confident in the longer term prospects for oil & gas and gas fired
power generation.
