A message from Duane Oxford

G’day and welcome to the latest edition of In the Loop.

Kicking off with some good news – we’ve recently been awarded a three-year contract (with two one-year extension options) to provide multidisciplinary maintenance services across upstream field development and production operations for Santos’ Queensland assets.

Further expanding on our work with Santos, we were awarded a contract for the construction of temporary camp facilities associated with the APF Tie-In Project in the Southern Highlands region of Papua New Guinea, with work expected to be completed by the end of 2026. 

This achievement caps off a year of consistently strong performance. Over the past 12 months, we have also celebrated significant service milestones, recognising 15 employees for 10 years of service, 10 employees for 15 years, six employees for 20 years, one employee for 25 years, and two employees for an outstanding 30 years of service.

In June, we celebrated ‘International Women in Engineering’ day – check out the social media campaign here, with one of the Easten Region’s own, Emma from BMC in Victoria!

As we head into the second half of the year, I’d like to thank everyone for their continued hard work, commitment and focus. It’s encouraging to see so many positive achievements across the business, from securing new work and strengthening customer relationships to recognising the contributions of our people.

Let’s continue to build on this momentum and continue to work together and do what we do best – delivering what we promise!

Until next time, stay safe and look out for your mates.

Duane
