Capability Statement

We received the Australian construction industry's highest accolade for this major wharf redevelopment within Melbourne's main port precinct.

This was a large and complex marine project delivered within Australia's busiest operational container port, and within very tight environmental controls to protect the rich marine life within the surrounding bay.

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.

We recently completed Stage 1 of the Swanson Dock West Remediation, and are now delivering Stage 2. This is our sixth project for Port of Melbourne since 2017.

Swanson Dock West (SDW) is a critical International Container Terminal comprising of a 944 m wharf with three container-handling berths, which were constructed in several stages between the 1960s and 1980s. The existing wharf is of varying forms of construction and some sections are close to or beyond the typical design life of 30 years. As a result, major remediation was needed.

We upgraded the Queen Sālote International Wharf in Nukau'alofa for the Tongan Ministry of Infrastructure between 2023 and 2025, on time and on budget, with zero LITs during the one million hours worked.

The wharf is Tonga’s only international port, a lifeline for the country, processing 95% of the country's imports and exports. This critical infrastructure upgrade modernised and climate-proofed the facility, increased capacity, and improved power, drainage and water services.

We demolished a 100 year old wharf and designed and constructed a 100 m long replacement for Port Nelson Ltd, without impacting their operations. The new wharf caters for larger container and cruise vessels, and is also more resilient to seismic activity.

We commenced with the demolition and removal of the old timber and concrete structure, together with its associated fendering, concrete retaining wall, and two piled bollards.

We completed the main berth construction scope for BHP Mitsubishi Alliance's (BMA) SABR Project, using the Early Contractor Involvement process to develop a number of innovations.

SABR, short for 'Shiploader and Berth 2 Replacement', was a brownfields project located within the lease boundaries of BMA's existing Hay Point Coal Terminal near Mackay, Queensland. It included the disassembly and replacement of one of the existing shiploaders and berths to improve materials handling throughput and cyclonic wave immunity.

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.

Working for the Port Authority of New South Wales we delivered a series of improvements to the Overseas Passenger Terminal (OPT), located in the iconic Circular Quay area of Sydney Harbour.

Built in 1960, the OPT is located in one of Australia’s busiest waterways. Over time, natural processes and vessel activity have caused scouring, accretion and movement of materials on the seabed around the terminal’s wharf.

Working closely with the Cook Islands Port Authority, we expanded their existing port facilities to accommodate larger cargo and cruise ships. Staging our works around their existing operations, we implemented a number of initiatives to expedite the works.

Our scope included: construction of a new 270 m long wharf; dredging and widening of the main harbour to increase turning movements for ships; armoured revetment shore protection around the entire harbour; demolition of wharf structures and buildings; and provision for new lighting.

Using an innovative, flood-resilient design, we upgraded upgrade seven ferry terminals along the Brisbane River for Brisbane City Council. These replaced the orginal terminals lost or damaged in serious flooding. We also built a new terminal at Milton to service residents and workers.

The new facilities, capable of berthing two CityCat vessels simultaneously, include new covered waiting areas and access gangways, steel pontoons, and a debris deflection system.

We successfully delivered two new wharves at La Perouse and Kurnell on Botany Bay (Kamay) for the NSW Government. These modern structures replace the original wharves, which had been in operation from the 1890s until 1974, when severe storms rendered them beyond repair.

The Kurnell site holds deep historical and cultural significance. As the first landing place of Captain James Cook, it is a key part of Australia’s colonial history. Equally important, the area remains a place of enduring cultural heritage for First Nations people. To honor this, the wharf designs incorporate large-scale artworks by local Aboriginal artists, creating a meaningful connection to Country.
