  Project Manager – Iain Haycock (100% tenure)
  

  McMillan Pacific Ltd were successful in tendering to construct the anchored foundations for the FEA Wind Farm turbines at Butoni FIJI.
  
  The ground anchor design was undertaken by McMillan Pacific personnel and enabled cost effective solutions to be adopted in the highly variable foundation conditions.  Holes varied between 100NB and 150NB to depths up to 30mbgl.  Using one anchoring rig the average daily anchor installation rate was 4, with 10 installed at peak production.
  This contract was completed successfully, well ahead of time and within budget.
