      Island Fabrication, Inc. Announces Cooperative Agreement</b></font>
    </p>
    <p>
      HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 24, 2014--Gulf Island Fabrication, Inc.
      (NASDAQ: GIFI), announced today that, they have signed a cooperative
      agreement with Bechtel Oil, Gas, and Chemicals, Inc. to work together to
      pursue opportunities for offshore projects for the U.S. Gulf of Mexico
      and abroad. Gulf Island&#8217;s fabrication experience, infrastructure, and
      skilled labor along with Bechtel&#8217;s unmatched engineering, project
      management, and direct-hire construction capabilities, provides
      customers a strong EPC provider.
    </p>
    <p>
      The cooperation agreement is predicated on one governing principle &#8211; to
      deliver to our customers, high quality EPC solutions on time and on
      budget. Gulf Island and Bechtel will use this model to deliver fixed,
      floating, and subsea facilities to the market.
    </p>
    <p>
      &#8220;Gulf Island is excited about the cooperation agreement signed with
      Bechtel which couples our fabrication expertise and specialized
      capabilities with one of the most respected EPC companies in the world.
      Together we offer a new approach to deliver offshore projects which
      incorporates innovative solutions and flexibility to meet and exceed
      client expectations and requirements,&#8221; said Kirk Meche, President and
      CEO of Gulf Island Fabrication, Inc.
    </p>
    <p>
      &#8220;With the expansion of the demand for energy around the world, oil
      companies continue to expand and develop larger and more complex
      offshore projects, and will need reliable contractors to deliver them.
      The agreement between Bechtel and Gulf Island Fabrication creates a team
      that can deliver them successfully,&#8221; said Joe Gebara, general manager of
      Bechtel&#8217;s Offshore business. &#8220;Gulf Island&#8217;s record of fabricating some
      of the most challenging offshore structures makes the company a strong
      partner for Bechtel. I am looking forward to our success working closely
      together.&#8221;
    </p>
    <p>
