What EIG Australia does

EIG Australia is a Perth-based specialist contractor that designs, constructs, and maintains fuel and electrical infrastructure for the Australian Defence Force, mining, oil and gas, industrial, and commercial sectors across Australia. Founded in 2010 by Daniel Johnson and Aldo Merlo, the company operates from a single office in Canning Vale, Western Australia, with approximately 20 employees, and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Duratec Group of companies. Core capabilities include Electrical Equipment in Hazardous Areas (EEHA) installations, PLC and SCADA control systems, high voltage electrical infrastructure up to 33KV, bulk fuel storage and dispensing systems, aviation fuel farms, lubrication facilities, and engineering consultancy covering hazardous area classification, HAZOPs, and dangerous goods licensing.

The business operates on a project-based B2B contracting model, engaged either as prime contractor directly with enterprise and government clients or as a specialist subcontractor to major construction firms including Duratec, Decmil, Georgiou Group, and Tier 16. Pricing is custom and quote-based rather than standardized, with no published rate cards. Revenue streams include one-time fuel and electrical project delivery, professional consultancy and design services, and a newer recurring maintenance and aftercare managed service offering. The company holds ISO 9001, ISO 45001, and ISO 14001 certifications (obtained December 2023) and is a member of AIDN, NECA, and PICAWA, supporting its credentials for regulated Defence and resource sector tenders.

Customer concentration is anchored in Western Australian resource and Defence markets, with named enterprise and government clients including Fortescue, Rio Tinto, Australian Defence Force bases (HMAS Stirling, RAAF Pearce), Strike Energy, BCI Minerals, Mineral Resources Limited, Burgundy Diamond Mines, Onslow Marine Supply Base, and Kimberley Marine Supply Base, alongside commercial engagements such as H&H Developments, Duratec heritage works, and Ingham's Enterprises. Operations are domestic Australian with Pilbara and broader Western Australia project footprints; no public revenue, funding rounds, or M&A activity by EIG itself are disclosed, though the company operates as part of the publicly listed Duratec Limited group.
