Civmec – Jans-lo Compression Project (J-IC)

In a recent prestart meeting, the remarkable team at PCM GROUP PTY LTD was honoured with the prestigious Above and Beyond Award for their outstanding contribution in delivering Thermal Spray Aluminium (TSA) services as part of Civmec’s involvement with the Chevron Jans-lo Compression project. Our crew executed Wire Arc Spray methodology to apply the coating to the various substrates of significant area, providing a corrosive resistant barrier to the harsh sea water environment.

Project Overview


The Jansz-Io Compression (J-IC) project will use proven subsea compression technology to enhance the recoverability of the Jansz-Io field and maintain the supply of natural gas to the LNG and domestic gas plants on Barrow Island. The installation of compression and supporting infrastructure will also enable the future tie-in of other fields within the Greater Gorgon Area.


J-IC is part of the original development plan for Gorgon and will support the delivery of energy to customers in Western Australia and Asia for decades to come. Approximately 6,500 tonnes of subsea structures, including the subsea compression station responsible for compressing the field gas, will be installed on the sea floor. The power and control requirements for the subsea infrastructure will be provided by a 27,000 tonne floating field control station, a normally unattended facility that is tied to the seabed by 12 mooring lines. Power for the field control station is supplied from Barrow Island via a 14 kilometre land cable connected to a 135 kilometre submarine cable.
