Dunedin

ABContracting successfully transformed a former meat processing site in Dunedin, New Zealand, into a modern LPG Bulk Storage and Transit Facility designed for hazardous substances. The project involved comprehensive asbestos remediation and the construction of a fully integrated hazard facility, including mechanical, electrical, civil, and security systems.

​

The team upgraded existing power and hydro services while introducing above-ground hazardous storage solutions and bulk transfer systems. Extensive earthworks were undertaken, including excavation, land stabilization, dewatering, and underpinning, to ensure structural integrity and regulatory compliance.

​

All required buildings, platforms, and storage sheds were completed in a single project phase. Despite the complexities of working on a contaminated site, ABContracting met both time and budget targets. The transportation of certified pressure vessel tanks across both islands was seamlessly managed.

​

The project was delivered during a period of legislative transition in New Zealand, requiring additional risk assessments and collaboration with WorkSafe to meet enhanced safety standards. The facility was completed incident-free, again reflecting ABContracting’s commitment to safety, efficiency, and quality in every aspect of the project.
