Alcatel-Lucent is to enhance operations and ensure worker safety at a new liquefied natural gas (LNG) processing plant in Australia being constructed by leading global engineering, construction and project management company, Bechtel.An advanced communication system will provide surveillance and secure access capabilities at the Gladstone facility, and support operational data and voice communications.
The GLNG Project is one of Australia’s largest energy projects and will use innovative new technology to process coal seam natural gas (CSG) into LNG for export to global markets.
Alcatel-Lucent will deliver a wide range of communications systems and services for the GLNG Project, including network design, installation, integration, project management and construction.
The use of real-time video and data will allow workers at the GLNG Project to monitor operations in the LNG processing trains, which house liquefaction and purification facilities, on a 24-hour basis. In addition, real-time data notification will ensure that teams are aware of any potential issues, so that they can be addressed appropriately.
