$16 billion Woodside LNG project will process gas from the Pluto
and Xena gas fields, located in the Carnarvon Basin about 190km
north-west of Karratha, in Western Australia.
Pluto is a new 3 train LNG project located
adjacent to Woodside’s already existing North West Shelf
5 train LNG facility. The first train is commissioned as Stage
1 with two further trains to commence shortly after its completion.
The initial production train is based on a resource of 5 trillion
cubic feet of gas from the Pluto and Xena fields. The two further
trains and possibly a domestic gas facility will help improve
the project's eventual returns.
RMD Australia has been involved in all aspects
of the formwork including footings, simple wall forms, detailed
wall forms, single height pours to 8.6m, suspended concrete
bridge road crossings, ring beam formwork, temporary works to
suspend cast in bolt templates and jetty construction.
The main equipment hired includes the Rapidshor
shoring system, Super Slim Soldiers, Megashor shoring system
and the Minima panel formwork system.
RMD Australia is in a fortunate position on
this project to be supporting numerous clients, these are: Leighton;
John Holland; Harbourworks Clough Joint Venture, CB&I, BGC,
Whitten Brothers Concrete, Killarnee Formwork and Fremantle
Constructions.
RMD Australia’s diverse range
of equipment and responsive customer service with effective
engineering solutions has placed us at the forefront of being
the main supplier of formwork equipment on the Pluto LNG project.
