For over five decades, we’ve been at the helm of pioneering engineering solutions in Australia, committed to energy advancement and environmental sustainability. 👉 One of our most exciting projects in Australia is the one with Ampol, where we’re working on the Future Fuels Desulphurisation Project, an initiative critical to meeting the upcoming Euro 6 fuel sulphur emissions standards in Australia. By 2025, all fuels must contain less than 10ppm sulphur, and our role in the Front End Engineering Design phase is pivotal in ensuring these targets are met. This project not only showcases our engineering excellence but also highlights our global connectivity, with support from our offices in Houston, Mumbai, UAE, London, Bogota, and Calgary. Curious to learn more about our transformative projects and our role in advancing Australia's fuel technology? Connect with us at the upcoming Australian Energy Producers Conference and Exhibition 2024. Dive into our projects and explore how we're driving innovation in the energy sector.

We’ve been awarded the FEED (Front End Engineering Design) contract for Project Northpoint, a groundbreaking Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) initiative spearheaded by Fulcrum Bioenergy. This project will see us leverage our deep expertise in Waste-to-Fuels technology to convert approximately 600,000 tonnes of pre-processed waste into 100 million litres of SAF annually in the UK. Our involvement spans comprehensive engineering services, cost estimation, managing multiple licensors, and execution planning to pave the way for tendering the engineering, procurement, and construction phases. We're proud to bring our proven FEED capabilities to this project from our Woking office, marking a significant step towards the UK's Net Zero journey and the decarbonisation of the transport sector. ✈️
For over 55 years, we've been at the forefront of engineering and project delivery, supporting Australia's energy sector and advancing efforts to reduce the nation's carbon footprint. 🚀 For instance, we are currently working on the Jansz-Io Compression Project for Chevron, where we manage the detailed engineering, procurement, integration, and testing of telecom infrastructure. By integrating complex systems from multiple vendors, we ensure secure, reliable communications for essential operations with minimal onsite staff.
