Shape Management were delighted to continue our partnership with UWA's Oceanographics department by collaborating with the Indian Ocean Marine Research Centre in Marmion. The project entailed overseeing a program of works including a comprehensive upgrade of the services infrastructure, a new bore and evaluating the viability of constructing a PC2 marine laboratory at the location.
Completing the project presents some fascinating challenges, such as executing the upgrades in an operational lab that operates 24 hours a day with experiments that require consistent conditions. The management of construction-related factors like vibration, dust, and ambient temperature will be crucial to ensure the project's success.
