Vertech provided project management, coordination, and planning services in partnership with Woodside Energy’s EPCM Wood, to deliver the GWA flare tip change out. Using a custom flare tip handling package, our IRATA rope access, rigging, mechanical and coatings teams replaced the flare tip located 160m above sea level (120m above deck) on a vertically designed flare tower.
