Opportunities - working with us

A guiding business principle of QGC as it develops the Queensland Curtis LNG Project is that communities should benefit from our presence.

Part of that commitment means providing opportunities for individuals and competitive local industry to participate in the Queensland Curtis LNG Project.

Across its various components, the Queensland Curtis LNG Project will provide more than 4,000 direct jobs at the peak of construction and about 1,000 permanent positions.

Liquefaction plant

Building the liquefaction plant on Curtis Island will account for a large proportion of the workforce, with about 1,500 jobs at peak construction, comprising carpenters, pipe fitters, coded welders, electricians, steel fixers, riggers, boilermakers and many other trades.

General contracting, engineering, concreting, pre-fabrication, equipment hire, communications and transport are among the many suppliers and services required.

When the plant is completed, a further 100 to 200 full-time personnel will operate the facility.

Gas fields and pipeline

The main pipeline to Gladstone will provide employment for around 400 to 500 people at peak periods of construction activity with 100 to 200 more needed at various times to work on the interconnecting pipeline network.

In the gas fields, up to 2,000 people will be required over the life of the project for exploration, appraisal and gas production as fields are expanded to meet demand. Queensland Curtis LNG is committed to ensuring that local industry is provided with full, fair and reasonable opportunities to tender for work.

Jobs

Individuals interested in working on the Queensland Curtis LNG Project should regularly monitor the Bechtel website for opportunities.
