Under the contract, Theiss will install field compressor stations, HDPE (high density polyethylene) gathering pipelines, intermediate pressure gas trunklines, water storage ponds and complete site preparation for additional compressor stations near Miles and Chinchilla in the Surat Basin. Work will begin this month and is scheduled for completion in March 2012. Theiss manager for resources and LNG Grant Fraser said the company’s submission stood out against tough competition, addressing key client issues including innovation, community relations and use of local suppliers and subcontractors.
