Lachlan was appointed because of his diverse experience across gas well connections, HDPE gathering infrastructure construction and construction in brownfield environments. The project Lachlan achieved excellent results, having to manage the project’s various stakeholders, completing the project successfully.

Lachlan joined the management team, which at the time was facing some challenges. Through efficiencies and applying lean principles, the project was turned around to deliver the anticipated schedule and project margins. The project included the installation of approximately 300 wellsite metering facilities and over 1000 kilometers of gas, water and electrical services through the coordination of a direct workforce of roughly 320 people.

Lachlan’s involvement in the project commenced pre-award and he was integral in the contract negotiation and execution phases. The project’s cost-plus contract model drove the need to, not only provide, but clearly demonstrate to the client value for money. Lachlan achieved this by coordinating his team to maintain strong project controls and provide clear, concise reporting. Lachlan facilitated a safety culture that empowered team members to make safe choices for their own personalised reasons. This resulted in the project achieving an excess of 500 days recordable injury free. Skilled personnel were retained on this project in a cost effective manner despite the high demand for experienced and skilled personnel at the time. This was achieved through the effective use of industrial instruments and constant consultation with the workforce. The scope consisted of a series of multi-well pads, HDPE gas and produced water-gathering networks and was executed with a team of approximately 90 people over a geographical distance in excess of 200km.
