The additional work, start next month and is set to be completed late this year, is ATCO's fourth major contract supporting LNGprojects in Australia, spanning both the resource rich east and west coasts.

"ATCO is pleased to continue its work with Bechtel and Chevron on one of Australia's largest resource projects and to support the creation of jobs in the communities where we operate," ATCO president George Lidgett said.

ATCO undertakes off-site construction and on-site installation simultaneously, using a coordinated ‘just-in-time' methodology.

In 2013, the company opened the largest customised modular manufacturing facility in Australia with capacity to produce more than 250 modules per month, incorporating a high level of automation across all its manufacturing processes.
