Henderson-based engineering and construction firm Civmec has been awarded a number of contract wins and extensions, including more work on the new Perth Stadium, with a combined value of $68 million.
Building on a $73 million steelwork contract it was awarded by Brookfield Multiplex for the Perth Stadium, Civmec has also been selected to supply and install about 5,300 tonnes of precast concrete units.
Work is expected to begin in July and be completed by May next year.
Civmec was also awarded a contract with Rio Tinto, whereby it will develop a new fuel facility between the mining giant’s Brockman 2 and Brockman 4 mine operations in the Pilbara.
The company will build a facility that will unload 16 rail tank cars simultaneously into diesel storage tanks, and a facility to load road tankers.
“It also includes construction of a number of related facilities for minor truck maintenance, and the installation of a fuel management system and fire protection system,” Civmec said.
The company will require 90 works at the peak of the job, with work to begin immediately and be finished by September.
Civmec will also be undertaking structural, mechanical, platework and piping installation works for a new filtration plant at Alcoa’s Kwinana operations for Sedgman.
The company will build and install tanks and filter equipment, including six filter presses, and will require peak manning of 140 workers.
Work will begin immediately, with completion expected in November.
The engineering and construction firm has also been hired by GE Oil & Gas to undertake fabrication and testing of a new 34-inch subsea pig launcher/receiver at Chevron’s Gorgon gas project on Barrow Island.
Stage one of the works will commence immediately and is scheduled for completion in November, while fabrication of a six-inch kicker, header, testing of the receiver and retro fitting will be carried out at a later date as part of stage two works.
Meanwhile, Civmec has been hired to carry out bulk earthworks and trenching on behalf of Samsung C&T at the Roy Hill iron ore project in the Pilbara.
“The project includes excavation and backfilling of over 36 kilometres of trenching, installation of conduits and cable into trenches, and provision of other electrical services,” it said.
“Work on the project is commencing immediately, with completion scheduled for mid-2015.”
Civmec has also been hired by FMC Technologies for fabrication, surface treatment and testing of a production manifold, which will be installed at Woodside Petroleum’s $1.2 billion Persephone project in the North West Shelf.
Civmec chief executive Pat Tallon said the new awards with existing clients highlighted a satisfaction in the market for the company’s service offering.
“It demonstrates the breadth and depth of our capabilities, along with our commitment to providing our clients with the highest levels of service,” he said.
