1Reliability Dependability Quality

JT Day’s 50th anniversary is to be marked in grand style with the opening

of our new $5 million office and warehouse complex in Wangara.The new 6,000 sq metre building, more than double the size of our existing premises, has been custom designed to meet our needs of having office space and a large storage area for cable and other items of equipment.We currently handle over 2,500 specialist product lines. A building specifically designed to accommodate these items has been sorely needed for a long time.The specifications of the building is such that the IT installation is being undertaken by a specialist crew coming from the UK to undertake the work.The opening of the new premises will be performed by the Mayor of Wanneroo, Tracey Roberts, JP.

The event is to be attended by Mr Donnie MacLean, Managing Director of the MacLean Electrical Group of which JT Day is the Australian division.There will also be a number of principals of the international suppliers to the oil and gas industry that we represent.Most importantly we’ll also be inviting representatives of our clients and vendors

to the event. Hopefully our clients will get the opportunity to meet with these principals and representatives most of whom represent some of the most significant suppliers to the oil and gas industry in the world.The event will be somewhat timely – just ahead of the Australian Oil and Gas Exhibition and Conference, an event of interest to the visiting industry principals.

It’s on again – we’ll be there for sure

Material bound for one of the world’s coldest well sites

The Australian Oil & Gas Exhibition and Conference will be held February 22-24 at the Perth Exhibition Centre.J.T. Day’s award winning stand (M5) will feature a range of new equipment with people on hand to explain it. Among the new products to be displayed will be Chalmit’s LED Protecta light, Weidmuller’s new power supply gear - TB junction boxes, relays and other items, plus Orga Offshore’s navigation lighting and Oglaend System’s FRP products.Our principals will also be in attendance in the hope of meeting our customers.

THE JT Day Melbourne and Perth based project teams have successfully worked on a project to supply fire and gas detection equipment, along with instrument and electrical

equipment for the Sakhalin-1 Project – Chayvo (Phase 2) operated by Exxon Neftegas on the island of Sakhalin in the waters off Russia.The Chayvo Phase 2 project, an expanded development of Chayvo natural gas resources involves drilling additional gas wells and the expansion of existing onshore and offshore facilities. Operators are hoping to develop the operation there to be able to withstand the extreme arctic like conditions so that it can be operated continuously.The orders included Chalmit hazardous area lighting, Hawke International hazardous area 316SS and GRP junction boxes plus the Oglaend System 316SS cable ladder, and accessories.Specifications required the electrical and instrumentation equipment to be able to withstand Sakhalin’s near arctic conditions.

Perimeter Lights:

These green 30Cd LED perimeter lights, designed to be placed at intervals not more than 3 metres apart around the perimeter of the safe landing area have a lamp life of 100,000 hours. Needless to say this level of lamp life represents incredibly low maintenance needs.

New partnership with Orga Offshore to supply helideck lighting

If a low maintenance, robust helideck lighting system that meets the latest in regulation standards is what you

need – we have the perfect solution.These outstanding lighting systems come from Orga Offshore, a specialist in the development of helideck lighting.Orga Offshore is a world leader in developing and manufacturing state of the art hazard warning lights, radar response

beacons, foghorns, fog detectors and other navigational aids plus solar power systems for customers in the offshore, aviation and petrochemical industries.With respect to helidecks they supply lighting for Perimeter, Status, Circle & H, Windsock and Floodlighting, all of which meets the new UK Civil Aviation Authority CAP437 recommendations and/or ICAO regulations.

Cable for Gorgon ProjectJT Day has recently delivered a $5million order for medium voltage electrical cable to be installed in the Gorgon, Barrow Island project.The order, the second for work on the island,was placed by Laing O’Rourke who are undertaking a $98million contract for the Gas Plant’s general utilities.

SmartCleat calculations made easy Oglaend System has released a SmartCleat Calculation Program that helps you calculate how many SmartCleats you need for your cable run.It also recommends the distance between SmartCleats mounted on cable ladders.Get your copy from oglaend-system.com

Status Lights:

These low power consumption lights are less than 250mms in height and are the only CAP 437 compliant status lights available for mounting on a helideck.A helideck status light system should be installed if a condition can exist on an installation which may be hazardous for the helicopter such as a gas alarm. The status light signaling system should be visible 360degrees around the structure with a flash rate of 120 flashes per minute and controlled in combination with the platform gas detection system.

Circle–H Lighting:

These low power consuming, low maintenance touch down markers and heliport identification lights are designed to reduce the so called ‘black hole’ effect and will eliminate the glare from helideck floodlighting systems while increasing pilot orientation awareness.

Helideck Floodlighting:

The HFLO10EX-XE floodlight is an explosion proof helideck floodlight system. It’s made with a long life lamp and designed to meet a tough offshore environment.

Illuminated windsock

This internally illuminated wind direction indicator enables the pilot to be able to determine wind direction easily at night.These products are all available through J.T. Day.

Customised power boards for ConocoPhillips Portable distribution Boards, supplied

by JT Day to requirements of the operators on the ConocoPhillip’s

Bayu Undan offshore platform off Darwin are proving to be a success.ConocoPhillips required 4 new Hazardous Area rated, 3 phase distribution boards and 4 single phase distribution boards for mounting on one of its three interconnecting platforms that are piping gas from the Timor Sea well for refinement at its Darwin Gas Plant.Each Three phase distribution board has one 32A and two 16A, 5 pin three phase outlets, as well as one 16A single phase outlet. Each Single phase distribution board has eight 16A single phase outlets. The end result is that they can now safely provide power to any area of their 280m long X 80m wide facility.A company spokesman reported they found the boards to be well engineered and robust, suitable for the offshore environment and the

HA inspection and certification was faultless.Furthermore, they’re well labelled, easy to use and a significant improvement over their existing boards in terms of construction, reliability and HA conformance.The development of the boards were project managed through design, fabrication and commissioning by JT Day’s, Grant Macpherson.

A regular visitor

Mr Donnie MacLean, the

managing director of the MacLean Electrical Group of which JT Day

is a part has become a frequent visitor to Australia.Mr MacLean visited Australia from the MacLean Electrical Group head office in Scotland in September /October for a familiarisation of the country’s oil and gas projects.The 10 day tour included Perth, Melbourne, Brisbane and Gladstone. He will be back in Perth to attend the opening of our new premises and to attend the oil and gas exhibition and conference.

Mekano™ Triangular Channels – extreme torsional strength and light weight

Since the launch of the triangular support channels Oglaend System has experienced a great demand for this cost saving design in

the global oil and gas market. The so called Mekano 50-2T and 100-2T channels have been supplied to several large offshore projects covering facilities such as FPSO’s, drilling platforms and accommodation platforms.

These channels have significant torsional strength a result of the triangular design. Small perforations at the front and large perforations at the back create a lightweight, flexible and easily installed support solution. The Mekano™ triangular channels are part of Oglaend System’s multidisciplinary support system, MultiGrid™, which can bring a total system cost saving of up to 30 percent during an EPC project.

The large holes make it

easy to bolt other parts to

the channel

Mekano 100 - 2T bolted to Mekano 100-1. The bolts can be mounted from either side

Compared to a traditional welded support solution the triangular channels will reduce

the weight of the support solution by up to 45 percent and man hours with up to 65 percent

Employees from our sales division are undergoing a tailored

course in electro technology provided by the College of Electrical Training. The short course follows the fundamentals from the College’s electrical trade criteria but has been moulded to include the application of a number of principal products such as those from the Weidmuller power products portfolio. The introduction of the course represents our commitment to the technical development of our employees as a large number of our sales personnel have trade

related backgrounds but not all electrical. The course involves approximately 100 hours of contact time at the College taking in theory and practical work with application to the industries we service.
