North American Construction Group Ltd. Announces Award of Heavy Civil Construction Project

ACHESON, Alberta, Nov. 21, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- North American Construction Group Ltd. (“NACG” or “the Company”) (TSX:NOA.TO/NYSE:NOA) today announced that Mikisew North American Limited Partnership (“MNALP”) has been awarded a heavy civil construction contract by a major producer in the oil sands region. The project involves building large diversion ditches to redirect water from upstream catchments away from active mining areas and releasing into downstream locations.

The award of this two-year project, expected to generate revenue for the Company of approximately $125 million, reflects the operating expertise and client trust NACG has gained over on our long history in the region. The project is set to begin January 2025 with completion expected in October 2026. This heavy civil infrastructure project, located at one of the leading mines in the Fort McMurray region, reinforces our long-term strategic partnership with the client and leverages synergies with existing infrastructure and mine support activities on site. This collaboration further solidifies the strong working relationship between the two organizations.

“Our ongoing partnership with this key client is a cornerstone of our long-term strategy in the region,” said Joe Lambert, President and Chief Executive Officer of NACG. “This project showcases our technical expertise in large-scale civil construction and highlights the synergies we are able realize between our civil infrastructure and mine support operations. We are committed to delivering exceptional results with a focus on safety, quality, and seamless integration with our client's ongoing operations.”

“This project exemplifies our commitment to delivering impactful, sustainable solutions in the oil sands region,” said Jeff Epp, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Mikisew Group. “We are proud to bring our expertise and resources to a project that enhances operational efficiency while supporting environmental stewardship by effectively managing water flow around active mining areas. This award strengthens our partnership with NACG and reflects our shared dedication to innovation, safety, and delivering lasting value for our clients and the community.”
