Engineering for Oil & Gas Operations

The Oil and Gas sector in Queensland has experienced rapid growth over past years with a number of basins throughout the region currently producing, or with the potential to produce oil and gas.  The Gas sector in particular is an area that benefits from the mechanical, electrical, structural and control systems engineering services that Orana Engineering can provide.  We are experienced working with clients in the Surat and Bowen Basins, and are strategically placed to support future expansion into the Galilee Basin. 

From the upstream operations of extracting, processing and compressing Coal Seam Gas (CSG) to the downstream process of converting the gas into Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) for shipment and export, our engineering services, which include design, project management, design drafting, revisions and drawing management, are intended to support the ancillary services of the oil and gas industry including fixed plant and infrastructure such as water treatment plants, compressors and power stations.  Orana Engineering can also provide support for the ancillary services associated with Underground Coal Gasification (UCG) operations. 

It is important that any contractor or supplier to the oil and gas industry is familiar with acts and legislation that govern the operations onsite, and Orana Engineering ensures that staff are conversant with these.  For further information on the legislation, please follow the links below. 

Petroleum and Gas (Production and Safety) Act 2004
Petroleum and Gas (General Provisions) Regulation 2017
Petroleum and Gas (Safety) Regulation 2018
