May 2026
Introduction General
Thank you for the opportunity to present this brief capability statement which details a cross-section of our skills and experience, and showcases a selection of our recent projects.
Safety
We never compromise on safety.
We foster our 'Home Without Harm' safety culture through robust processes, effective systems, and by recognising and rewarding safe behaviours.
Our Site Safety Managers are always on our project leadership teams, ensuring safety is prioritised in all site activities. Every team member has clear safety responsibilities, aimed at protecting themselves, their colleagues, and the community.
We're also leading our industry in the adoption of new safety technologies, like virtual reality plant simulators and AI-enabled blind spot elimination. Check out the case studies below for more information.
Underpinning it all are our Safety Golden Rules. Built on our long-term collective knowledge and learnings, they are specifically targeted at preventing fatalities and serious injuries.
Purpose & Values (typically use 2nd or 3rd)
We are a Purpose and Values driven organisation. These define what's important to us, guide our decision making and unite us behind a common goal.
Our Purpose is Providing a Better Life.
We do that through delivering projects that connect, sustain and enhance communities, and through providing career opportunities that challenge, reward and grow our people.
We also have five company values that guide our behaviours and decisions. Our values are:
Creative Construction
Creative Construction at McConnell Dowell is the inspired engineering behind the complex infrastructure we deliver.
It's the technical problems and challenges solved behind the scenes by people empowered to think creatively and work collaboratively. It’s the alternative idea or innovation that saves time, reduces cost, makes us safer, and delivers more value.
It might not always be evident when you look at the end product, but it's there, inside every McConnell Dowell project.
SEA Intro (typically use 4th to 8th)
We established our South East Asian business in Singapore over 50 years ago and today we also have local offices and project teams in Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines.
Our South East Asian team combine their intimate local knowledge with the international expertise and resources of the broader McConnell Dowell Group to deliver complex, multi-disciplinary projects in transportation, water, industrial buildings, oil & gas, petrochemical, mining & metals, and power.
Our expertise includes civil, marine, pipeline, tunnelling & underground, mechanical & electrical, and heavy fabrication. We also own and operate an extensive regional plant and equipment fleet, bringing certainty and responsiveness to all our projects in the region.
Ports & Coastal Solutions
With over 330 marine projects completed across six decades, McConnell Dowell is synonymous with marine infrastructure.
From wharves and jetties to ocean outfalls, breakwaters, and submarine pipelines — we bring coastal confidence to every project.
Our modular approach to construction has helped create productive ports for clients like Rio Tinto, FMG, Vale, and BHP, where over 1.2 billion tonnes of iron ore are shipped annually from wharves we built.
Tangguh Marine Works
We delivered the marine works for BP’s LNG expansion project in Tangguh, located in the remote area of Bintuni Bay in West Papua. Our customer, PT Saipem Indonesia, was part of an EPC joint venture involving Chiyoda-Saipem -Tritati -SAE.
The overall expansion project comprised a full additional natural gas liquefaction train, including an onshore receiving facility (ORF), an additional Boil of Gas (BOG) recovery, utilities, flares, and all infrastructure to support the facility.

Swanson Dock East Berths 1 & 2 Rehabilitation
Collaborative Approach, Safety Focus, and Minimising Disruptions in Port Rehabilitation Project
Working in collaboration with the Port of Melbourne, we successfully completed four contracts at Swanson Dock between 2017 and 2020.
After completing the award winning Port Capacity Project, we continued our partnership with Port of Melbourne with a series of smaller contracts to rehabilitate the iconic Swanson Dock - the heart of Australia's busiest container terminal.
Fast Facts
- Multiple projects successfully completed without disrupting port operations
- 412 piles driven

Petronas RAPID Project 12B – Solid Products Jetty
We designed, constructed and commissioned a new jetty and associated handling facilities for Petronas, as part of their RAPID (refinery and petrochemical integrated development) project in Malaysia.
The main element of our scope was a Solid Products Handling Jetty, comprising of a 1300 m long trestle, 710 m long jetty head, two container berths and a sulphur loading berth.
Fast Facts
- 1300 m long trestle with 710 m long jetty head
- Two container berths and a sulphur loading berth
- Topside and landside materials handling system
- Onshore civil and building works
Batangas LNG Terminal
FGEN LNG Corporation (FGEN) engaged us to build and deliver the Interim Offshore Terminal Project ("IOT Project") at their LNG terminal in Batangas, in the Philippines.
We undertook the engineering, procurement and construction of both the Multi-Purpose Jetty and Onshore Gas Receiving Facility. The new Multiple Purpose Jetty is a permanent modification of the existing liquid fuel jetty which we constructed in 1998.
Fast Facts
- New multi-purpose jetty with topside infrastructure
- Onshore facilities, including control room
- 24 inch, 1.3 km long high pressure gas pipeline
- Extensive earthworks, including tsunami bund wall and access road
Mardie Salt & Potash Marine Structures
Delivering new marine facilities to grow Australian exports
We designed and constructed the marine structures for BCI Minerals’ Mardie Salt & Potash Project in Western Australia, using our innovative canti-traveller system for speed and low impact delivery.
The 'Mardie' Project is a large-scale, solar evaporation operation on the Pilbara coast. Capacity of the completed facility is estimated to be 5.35 million tonnes per annum of high purity salt and 140,000 tonnes per annum of sulphate of potash, over an operating life of at least 60 years.
Fast Facts
- 2.4 km long jetty with berthing and mooring dolphins
- 200 steel piles, up to 30 metres long
- 100 m of jetty completed every 10 days using innovative canti-traveller system
Sangatta Offshore Works
We were engaged to design and construct an eight-dolphin berthing facility, a pipeline end manifold (PLEM), and a new diesel supply pipeline for PT Petro Storindo Energy - a joint-venture between Oiltanking, BP and Kaltim Prima Coal.
Our scope of work included the dolphin mooring system (4 berthing and 4 mooring dolphins); a 3 km long, 20 inch diameter subsea/onshore pipeline; a subsea control unit; a PLEM (Pipeline End Manifold); a PIG Launcher and onshore PIG receiver; and miscellaneous pumps and tanks for the fuel supply. The line terminates at a diesel storage terminal that supports the operations of the Kaltim Prima Coal mine.

Fabrication
Recognising the quality, safety and speed benefits of prefabrication and modularisation, we pioneered large scale wharf steel modules for the mining sector and have supplied our oil and gas and power industry customers with intricate pre-assembled racks (PARs) and modules (PAMs). We have also provided structural steel, concrete structures and modules.
We deliver our comprehensive prefabrication and modularisation service through our fully equipped workshop, located on Batam Island in Indonesia, and through a network of quality-controlled fabrication and precast providers located across our operating regions.
Our Solutions (typically use 4th to 8th)
We offer our customers engineering and construction solutions in transport, water & wastewater, ports & coastal, energy, resources, and building.
Our services encompass the complete project lifecycle—from early concept design to commissioning and ongoing maintenance. We tailor each solution to suit our customer's specific project objectives and preferred delivery approach.
