Wood's Investment Services division offers strategic and technical advice to a diverse array of clients. This advice ranges from strategic and commercial counsel to overseeing project and program delivery, as well as optimizing investment portfolios.

Its major markets include the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Australia, the Middle East, and assorted locations in the Asia-Pacific and Latin America regions. The emphasis on these markets may change due to shifts in global energy demand, investment in infrastructure, environmental solutions and through strategic alterations by the company in its focus areas.
