SIGNIFICANT PROJECTS
These are some of big projects that the team have worked on, such as the AIRBUS A380, the largest project in europe of it's time, GLNG Fairview Hub 4 for Santos ($1.5Bn) and also QCLNG installing two FCS's out of seventen ($1.8Bn)
QCLNG - Field Compressor Station Installations - Andy Nunn
Overview
Site based senior project engineer(2IC) for QCLNG FCS Kate (2IC) & FCS Poppy, approximately 100-120 personnel on each site. For the first 4 months on this project we had no site manager so Andy was "acting site manager". Each FCS installation works valued at approximately $30M installation, out of $1.8Bn over entire project (There were 17-off FCS installations and 4-off Central Processing Plants [CPP]). Overall the entire installation package took approximately 3 years to complete. Each FCS typically comprises 4-off Enerflex supplied (Howden WCVTA 510 screw compressors), requires approximately 2200 dia inches of pipe welding, and around 80T of structural steel erection.

Fuel Farm Installation - RAAF Amberley - Andy Nunn
Overview
The Fuel Farm installation was part of the major upgrade to RAAF Amberley. This was required to facilitate the arrival of the C17 Globemaster into Australia, as the existing fuel farm was incapable of delivering the required fuel flow rates for the C17.
Works included a completely new fuel farm comprising 2-off 1.6 Mega litre fuel tanks, associated pipe-work, pump sets, filtration, motor control centre (MCC), fire supression system, water separation system, full PLC control system with SCADA monitoring front end. There was a change in scope so that the new fuel farm had to interface with existing Fuel Farm. This also meant that I had to review all existing pipework and valves for fitness for purpose and ensure the finished product complied with current standards.
Project value $15M
Repair of the existing Fuel Farm – The existing fuel farm needed upgrading to interface with the new Fuel Farm. Critical area of the plant will be renewed to facilitate interface with the new PLC controller/ SCADA in new Fuel Farm.
Project value $0.5M
Fuel Hydrant pipeline system - In addition to the fuel farm, a dedicated underground hydrant fuel pipeline was required to be installed to supply fuel from the fuel farm via the hydrant fuel pipeline to the runway apron for direct refuelling of the C-17 Globemaster transporter. Works consisted of underground pipe-work network (approx 1.4km). We experienced significant problems with MIC corrosion of the weld due the fact that the entire apron was submerged under water for approximately a week and the the clay soil resulted in high chloride levels, triggering corrosion. After investigation my recommended course of action was significant rework of the affected welds. Approximately 40% of the welds were affected by this. Project value $4.5M

Reverse Osmosis water feed pipeline & waste water treament plant feasibility - Lytton Refinery - Andy Nunn
Overview
Caltex is one of Brisbane’s highest users of water.
The purpose of this project was to install a pipeline connecting the Brisbane water pipeline to the Caltex supply feed. 4.3 Mega litres of RO water would supplied to Caltex at the conclusion of the project.
Issues
We experienced particular issues with weld corrosion. The material was stainless steel 316 but RO water is particularly corrosive and unless the welds are strictly controlled it is not uncommon to find that surface corrosion around the weld can lead to “eating through” 6mm of Stainless Steel in three months.
Having worked both in NDT and with Lloyds Register of Shipping as assistant surveyor I had experience of this type of issue. I used this and also researched more specific detail regarding the typical issues and solutions. One such solution was pickling the welds sufficiently that surface is stripped of any residue which may lead to “pitting” or “attack”. The pipeline was in the region of 1.4km long, running right through the middle of the “hazardous area” process plant.
Extensive discussions were held to provide the “best solution”. As an exercise purely for cleaning the welds the estimate was $100-$140k.
The pipeline was chemically etched and went into service after I left Worley Parsons in April 2008
Waste Water Treatment Plant
Overview
On this project I was tasked with providing a solution to eliminate the risk of oil getting into the Brisbane River, as there had been two previous discharges due to inclement weather. Sudden rain down pours cause problems due to surging.
There were a four settling ponds used at Caltex (Lytton) and a decommissioned holding dam & weir which were extensively corroded.
My investigations indicated a need for a additional “storage vessel”, to act in effect as “buffer” or “damper”, then providing a slow feed into the existing ponds. The existing flow route was ineffective as it created a “by-pass” in an overflow situation, thus allowing oil to reach Brisbane river without the necessary treatment.
I was given a set of parameter to work to but out of curiosity I requested waste output tests to be conducted for each of the sources feeding into the treatment system. It was interesting to note that some of the plants were discharging significantly more waste product than was advised to myself and more than the intended limits.
My immediate reaction was that each area of plant should resolve their own issues of waste limits and why they were failing to meet the requirements. By doing this I could then design a system around what it should be rather than merely relative to the levels of discharge that were being experienced at that time. This would make the project simpler and a more efficient design.
The Design
My concept was to use vortex technology to separate the oil and water. This was particularly attractive because the flow rate is merely “multiple” ie. If you want double the flow you purchase two units. This was a simple, reliable and cheap solution which at just once pass could provide output water within acceptable tolerances. My concept could be fully automated, so that maintenance would have been minimal.
Proposed one of two storage “vessels” either refurbish the existing “redundant dam & wier and completely rework both the concrete and mechanics to suit the revised design, or merely provide a “water tank” where contaminated water is pumped into it and then discharged through the vortex filtration units.
The benefits
My preferred design also provided benefit to Caltex as it would have relieved one of the separation ponds from it’s current duty. This could then be used when ships need to discharge contaminated water when docked at the Caltex mooring, as there is currently no facility available to visiting vessels.

Rolls Royce Trent 900 for Airbus A380 - Andy Nunn
Overview
The work covered at Rolls Royce plc was in support of the Assembly and Test Engineering department, looking specifically at the Trent 900 engine transportation for the Airbus A380.
There were a number of issues regarding the Ground Support Equipment (GSE), which I was tasked to resolve.
Validation was a big problem within the department. There were only two transportation stands used by Rolls-Royce plc. The Roll Over Stand was used purely for transportation and the Multi Purpose Stand is used for transportation and designed to allow engine installation and removal on the aircraft pylon.
The Airbus A380 is the world largest passenger aircraft. One aspect that has to be covered on the aircraft is the installation and removal of engines. This is particularly relevant in the scenario where the aircraft encounters an in flight engine failure, perhaps due to a bird strike. The stricken aircraft has to land in order that the engine can be changed. This scenario is known as Remote Site Rescue (RSR). The particular aspect of interest is the installation and removal of an engine when there are no hanger facilities such as overhead cranes etc.
In this situation the engine is installed/ removed manually using the Airbus boot strap operation. Until February 2006 this exercise had not been successfully completed in an RSR scenario. Rolls Royce plc were given the opportunity to demonstrate how Rolls-Royce plc would cover this situation.
I led a team of engineers in the validation of the Multi Purpose Stand (MPS). This was a far bigger exercise, particularly from a commercial stand point, and could only be executed in Hamburg, Germany. My team of engineers came from various countries USA, France and Germany and required precise co-ordination of both resource and equipment. This exercise had to interface with the Airbus programme so that it in no way affected their programme of works. This was my second international exercise. Airbus management were very impressed with the execution of the validation exercise. The exercise itself was to validate the MPS GSE for functionality, the interfacing with the Airbus “boot strap” operation and the procedure/s used to install and remove the power plant. The exercise was so successful that we even identified issues with Airbus procedures. Airbus have also indicated as a result of the validation exercise that they would like to use the Rolls-Royce plc MPS for installing/ removing the Airbus A380 engines as it will save them a minimum of three hours and maximum of six hours per engine change. This was a significant achievement for Rolls-Royce plc.
There was a failure early last year that led to a failure of the “trunnions” when used by Airbus. This was not a catastrophic failure but the trunnion had experienced “plastic deformation”. After an investigation it transpired that the loads being applied using the Airbus “boot strap” process had not been identified correctly. The loads being experienced were significantly higher than Airbus had advised Rolls-Royce plc. The trunnions had to be redesigned by Advanced Ground Systems Engineering (AGSE). I manage the external design interface with AGSE. AGSE design and manufacture both the Roll Over Stand and the Multi Purpose Stand.
Third Party Design House
I managed the development of a third Trent 900 transportation stand with AGSE which combined both the ROS and the MPS, known as the All Purpose Stand (APS). This stand is intended to allow a Trent 900 to be transported in a Boeing 747 Freighter and also designed to allow the engine to be either installed or removed using the Airbus “boot strap” process.
We concluded the preliminary design review and moved to have the first one manufactured. I compiled the programme for this and made provision for the validation.
Summary
Overall this position required that I establish contacts internally, develop relationships with the customer, designers and other external sources. I dealt with negotiation with the customer, co-ordination and project execution both in Derby and internationally. As a leader I established a good reputation and was regarded as a specialist within Rolls-Royce plc for transportation. This is backed up by the fact that they asked me to organise and execute an international trial at the customer’s premises.

Stargazer Project - Simon Barron
Overview
Stargazer, registration number N140SC, is a modified Lockheed L-1011 TriStar aircraft used by Orbital ATK as a mother shiplaunch pad for Pegasus rockets. As of June 2012, 35 rockets have been launched from it, using the Pegasus-H and Pegasus-XL configurations.
The first Pegasus launch to use Stargazer was conducted on 27 June 1994, and was the maiden flight of the Pegasus-XL. Previous launches used the NASA-operated Boeing NB-52B Balls 8, which was also used for four subsequent launches, as the original Pegasus could not be launched from Stargazer due to clearance issues. A modified version, the Pegasus-H, was introduced to rectify this.
In addition to Pegasus launches, Stargazer was used for captive tests and transportation of the X-34 hypersonic research aircraft; however, drop tests used Balls 8. Orbital Sciences also offer the aircraft for research flights.[1] It is capable of carrying a 23,000 kilograms (51,000 lb) payload to an altitude of 12,800 metres (42,000 ft).
Pegasus launches using Stargazer are usually conducted from Vandenberg Air Force Base. However, launches have also been conducted from the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Wallops Flight Facility, and from launch sites outside the United States: Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands and Gando Airport in Spain.
In 2015, Stargazer was re-painted to reflect Orbital Sciences' merger with Alliant Techsystems
