    UGL Ltd (ASX:UGL) and Downer EDI Ltd (ASX:DOW) have abandoned a contract with US oil giant Chevron.



    The companies have pulled out of the contract because of rising cost concerns on the $35 billion Gorgon liquified natural gas development, Media reports said today.



    The $2 billion contract was a joint bid for mechanical, electrical and other work on the Western Australian LNG project.



    Chevron has reportedly been pushing the two groups to resume talks over a modified contract.



    For the second half of last year, UGL Ltd (ASX:UGL) reported a profit of $64.8 million.
