Decmil Group Limited (ASX: DCG) ("DGL") today announced its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Decmil Australia Ltd, has been awarded an A$82.4 million
contract by Fortescue Metals Group Ltd ("FMG") to design and construct an
800-man accommodation village at Christmas Creek in Western Australias
Pilbara region.
Work on the project will start immediately and is expected to be completed
in February 2011.
Decmil Group CEO Scott Criddle said "this latest contract further cements
Decmils position as the leading provider of accommodation villages to the
WA resources and oil & gas industry."
"The Companys experience and reputation for designing and constructing
large-scale accommodation villages has strengthened in the past two years
and remains a core business focus for the Group going forward," Mr Criddle
said.
The Christmas Creek village will accommodate the permanent workforce for
FMGs mining operations and has been designed to provide a superior level
of comfort and service in accommodation villages in Western Australia.
The latest contract lifts DGLs forward order book to A$408M million, of
which A$326 million is attributable to the 2010/2011 financial year.
Mr Criddle said Decmil has seen a step-change in resource companies
approach to the design of remote accommodation villages in recent years.
"Decmil Australia is now designing and constructing villages that resemble
a resort, rather than a traditional workers camp with rows of
accommodation," he said.
"It is clearly evident that resources companies are significantly
increasing the design and standard of accommodation facilities offered to
employees in line with the strong competition for labour."
The Christmas Creek village has been specifically designed to enable a cost
effective and practical expansion to accommodate 1600 people.
The design clusters accommodation units in groups around a circular
landscaped meeting and relaxing zone rather than in a grid.
The village can
be built in two phases with two 800-person camps centered around a shared
services area.
