Fyfe Engineers & Surveyors

The Managing Director of Adelaide-based engineering and surveying firm

Fyfe has been appointed to the Board of the Australian Pipeline Industry

Association Ltd (APIA), the peak national body representing the interests of

Australia's transmission pipeline sector.

He is the second South Australian on the APIA Board.

Mr Dayman joins fellow South Australian Mr Ashley Kellett, the General

Manager of SEA Gas.

Mr Dayman said his appointment, at the recent APIA Convention in

Queensland, reflected South Australia’s AND Fyfe’s growing involvement in

the national pipeline industry.

He said the development of massive gas projects around Australia was

opening many opportunities for service providers and this growth was

expected to escalate significantly in coming years.

“These developments will almost certainly create opportunities for companies

such as Fyfe to provide specialist services,” he said.

“We are already working on a number of coal seam methane projects in

Queensland and South Australia and recently won a contract as part of the

multi-billion dollar Gladstone Liquified Natural Gas project in Queensland.

“However, we expect work in the industry will increase rapidly in coming years

as other gas projects are developed.”

APIA is a broad association covering all sectors of the gas transmission

industry, including owners and operators, construction companies,

consultancies and service providers.

APIA has more than 400 members.
