| John Holland secures second Wheatstone contract John Holland has secured another key contract with Bechtel Australia Pty Ltd on the Chevron-operated Wheatstone Project near Onslow on Western Australia's Pilbara coast. With an approximate contract value of $240 million, John Holland will design and construct a package of 12 permanent buildings essential to the operation of the onshore gas processing facilities, including an operations building, laboratory, maintenance centre, vehicle maintenance shop, fire station and plant warehouse. Six other smaller ancillary buildings will also be constructed. The Wheatstone Project involves the construction of two liquefied natural gas (LNG) trains and a domestic gas plant 12 km west of the coastal town of Onslow. Gas will be transported via a pipeline from an offshore processing platform 225 km off the coast to the onshore facilities. First LNG shipments are planned for 2016. write your comments about the article :: © 2011 Construction News :: home page |
