Changes in Directors' Responsibilities

The Board of Petrofac Limited ("Petrofac" or "the company") today announces
that, upon completion of the proposed demerger of Petrofac's UK Continental
Shelf oil & gas assets to a new company, EnQuest PLC, Amjad Bseisu will step
down from his role as Chief Executive of the Energy Developments business unit
and as a Director of Petrofac and will become Chief Executive Officer of
EnQuest PLC.

Following Mr Bseisu's departure, Ayman Asfari, Group Chief Executive of
Petrofac, will, on an interim basis, oversee the Energy Developments and
Productions Solutions business units, supported by Robert Jewkes, currently
Managing Director, Energy Developments, and Gordon East, currently Managing
Director, Production Solutions.

Ayman Asfari, Group Chief Executive of Petrofac, commented:

"On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank Amjad for his outstanding
contribution to the development of Petrofac over the last 12 years. Amjad
joined Petrofac in 1998 to found our co-investment business. During his tenure,
he led the development of our portfolio of investments in upstream oil & gas
assets and energy infrastructure in Algeria, Malaysia, Tunisia and the UKCS. I
am delighted Amjad will have the opportunity to apply his skills and experience
as the CEO of a production and development business. Amjad will leave Petrofac
with our gratitude and we wish him every success in his new career."

Amjad Bseisu, Chief Executive of EnQuest, commented:

"I have thoroughly enjoyed being part of the development and success of
Petrofac over the last 12 years and it has been a privilege to work with so
many talented and entrepreneurial people. Making the decision to leave Petrofac
was extremely difficult but I am very excited about the opportunities ahead for
both companies as a result of this transaction."
