On 6 February 2019 David Lufkin, previously Global Head of Sales for Petrofac International Limited, pleaded guilty to eleven counts of bribery, contrary to sections 1(1) and 1(2) of the Bribery Act 2010.
These offences relate to the making of corrupt offers to influence the award of contracts to Petrofac worth in excess of USD $730 million in Iraq and in excess of USD $3.5 billion in Saudi Arabia.
The plea came in connection with the SFO’s ongoing investigation into Petrofac Limited and its subsidiaries.
Jonathan Kinnear QC was instructed by the SFO.
