2014 Comet Ridge to Wallumbilla Pipeline Project – Queensland Australia
The GTP is a 420 kilometre, 42 inch transmission pipeline, which connects GLNG's gas fields in the Surat and Bowen Basins, Queensland, to the LNG facility at Curtis Island. Construction of the GTP commenced in 2012 and completed in 2014. First gas was introduced into the GTP in October 2014.
Connecting to the GTP is the 127 kilometre CRWP, a 16 inch pipeline commissioned in 2007, which delivers gas to the GTP from gas fields in Roma, Queensland, and connects to the Wallumbilla Hub — a gateway to the East Coast gas market. The CRWP has a design capacity of 200 TJ/d. Looping of the CRWP was completed in early 2015. The CRWP Loop is a 119 kilometre, 24 inch pipeline with a design capacity of 750 TJ/d.
On this project I attened and as AUT Operator with Olympus PipeWizard for the mainline welds. A maximum of 325 welds scanned in one day was achieved due to efficient orgnising of the work flow.
