The Santos GLNG site reached new heights last week with construction completed on the installation of a 50 metre high communications tower, Bechtel Gladstone said on Wednesday.
The construction of the permanent plant communications tower on the GLNG site will provide Santos GLNG with high-speed communication for the plant’s operational stage.
“ The 50-metre red and white tower – one of the taller structures on site – was transported to site in segments resembling a giant Meccano set and constructed next to the Central Control Administration (CCA) building, ” Bechtel Gladstone said.
“ This important piece of infrastructure will ensure the plant has reliable communication to incoming LNG tankers and digital radio coverage throughout the site, as well as high-speed data and phone services ,” the company added.
The project was completed by Alcatel-Lucent.
