John Holland wins Curtis Island LNG construction contract

John Holland has been awarded a AUD$150 million subcontract for the construction of marine offloading facilities as part of Gladstone LNG’s proposed Curtis Island LNG facility.

Under the subcontract, to be delivered for EPC contractor Bechtel Australia Pty Ltd, John Holland will design and construct a new ferry berth, a roll on/roll off berth, load on/load off berth and a bulk aggregate unloading berth.

Included in the contract scope are the engineering, design, procurement, supply, fabrication, transportation, erection and installation works necessary to complete the new marine facilities.

Executive General Manager of John Holland’s Energy & Resources businesses, Brendan Petersen, said, “The marine offloading facilities are an integral part of the GLNG project. The timely completion of this facility is critical to the overall success of the GLNG project. We look forward to further developing our relationship with GLNG and Bechtel.”

The contract builds on John Holland’s recent success in the energy and resources and minerals sectors, following a recent FEED contract win for Woodside Energy’s Browse LNG development in Western Australia and the ongoing delivery of Apache Energy’s Devil Creek onshore gas plant, also in Western Australia.

Construction of the new marine facilities will commence immediately with completion expected in 2012.
