McConnell Dowell is pleased to announce our success at the 2016 International Pipe Line & Offshore Contractors Association (IPLOCA) Excellence in Project Execution Award on Friday in Paris, France. The company’s Fourth Transmission Pipeline Phase 2 (FTP2) project in Thailand beat outstanding projects from around the world to secure the award for Excellence in Project Execution. Further information about the award can be found at the IPLOCA website.
Delivered between June 2014 and August 2015, the complex gas pipeline and facilities project spanning over a distance of 300km was completed in a challenging, densely populated environment, ahead of a demanding one-year schedule and with zero lost time injuries.
Speaking on accepting the award, Project Director Rod Blackwell thanked customer PTT Public Company Limited, construction partner CCC and his project team.
“The collaborative relationship formed between McConnell Dowell and PTT was the foundation of success for the project. It allowed us to align our objectives, present as a seamless team to the local community, and address every challenge encountered quickly and effectively.”
“Our project team was outstanding. Along with our partner CCC we successfully managed a peak workforce of over 2,800 people spread over more than 50 concurrent worksites to deliver the project safely and to a high quality standard. The results showcase the skill, commitment and dedication of all involved. Thank you to everyone on the team.”
McConnell Dowell (again in JV with CCC) also received the runners-up prize for the 520km long Australia Pacific LNG pipeline project; showcasing the company’s broad geographic footprint and resource capacity for delivering major, cross-country pipeline projects.
