The value of the contract was not revealed at this point but Alltype Engineering said work had already started in February and would continue for about 12-18 months. Alltype’s scope of work involves the supply and fabrication of temporary bracing and sea fastening for the preassembly portion of works that CKJV is undertaking on the Gorgon project. Alltype managing director Colin Heitman welcomed the contract.“This contract award reinforces the competitiveness of local fabrication companies in Western Australia and will see the creation of 60 to 80 local jobs at peak periods,” he said. The Gorgon project is one of the world’s largest natural gas projects and the largest single resource project in Australia’s history.
