Comms system goes to gas project

Zetron has shipped to Kentz a position advanced communication (Acom) dispatch system for use at the Chevron-operated Gorgon Project.

The system will provide dispatch communications over TETRA and conventional radio systems, as well as emergency call handling for the project.

The Gorgon Project is one of the largest natural gas projects in the world and the largest single-resource natural gas project ever undertaken in Australia.

The project includes the construction of a 15-million-ton-per-annum, liquefied natural gas plant on Barrow Island and the construction of a domestic gas plant with the capacity to provide up to 300 terajoules per day of gas to Western Australia.

The project is operated by an Australian subsidiary of Chevron and is a joint venture of the Australian subsidiaries of Chevron.
