About the Site
This is a major site within the energy security infrastructure, operating at a high tempo year-round. The plant follows a seasonal cycle-building up capacity during quieter months and running at peak performance during high-demand winter periods. There is a constant pipeline of maintenance, shutdown, and improvement work to maintain output, alongside ongoing investment in the plant's future. This results in evolving challenges for the maintenance and engineering teams as the plant scales.
