Project overview
LNG DOLPHIN WHARF CONSTRUCTION
MEA played a pivotal role in the successful completion of the Curtis Island LNG Construction project, providing expert design and fabrication services for several critical components. We were responsible for the design and construction of the berthing and mooring platforms, dolphin jetty pipes, custom-made lifting jigs, and all related Rio work. Our team worked closely with our client, John Holland Australia, to ensure that all elements met the highest standards of quality and safety.
As part of our commitment to delivering exceptional results, MEA provided a 3D-printed model of the project prior to the award of the job, allowing our client to visually assess our design. This innovative approach helped streamline decision-making and solidified our partnership with John Holland.
The berthing and mooring platform, which measured 20 x 20 meters and weighed over 150 tons, was a critical component of the project. The work was undertaken on the Critical Path over a 3-month period, during which we worked an impressive 1,800 man hours per week to meet deadlines. Despite the scale and complexity of the project, MEA successfully completed the job on time, under budget, and without any First Article Inspection (FAI) or Lost Time Injuries (LTI).
We adhered to strict in-house quality procedures for fabrication and NACE-inspected painting, resulting in zero Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs) or quality issues. MEA’s dedication to quality, safety, and efficiency was instrumental in the seamless delivery of this high-profile LNG project.
