“JKC Australia LNG has been advised by the UGL-Kentz joint venture, the Mechanical Works – Trains subcontractor, that approximately 145 personnel will be demobilised in December out of a total workforce of more than 2000 people,” JKC Australia LNG project director John Bramley told Australian Mining in an email. The company said it reached peak production during the second half of 2016, with more than 8000 workers on site every day, and added that the redundancies were a “natural part” of the construction process.
JKC, which subcontracted UGL, told Australian Mining there was strong progress made at the project this year. The redundancies will be from the UGL Kentz joint venture, which provided construction services for the Ichthys project. JKC Australia LNG has confirmed there will be approximately 145 worker redundancies at the Ichthys project in Darwin.
