Laboratory outsourcing services for Shell Refining (Australia):
Intertek was awarded outsourcing of Shell’s Newport Laboratory in Melbourne which handles lubricant blending and distribution quality control testing, along with aviation gasoline and jet fuel recertifications. Laboratory assets were transferred and assimilated into a nearby Intertek laboratory. Implementation planning with Shell representatives produced a seamless transfer with no obstructions to business operations.
Following the success of the Newport laboratory, Shell proceeded to outsource the 24 hour operation Clyde laboratory in Sydney. This is the first project in the Shell global network where an independent contractor provides all analytical services to support a full scale refinery.
“As part of Clyde's 'Best in Class' programme, an extensive review has been undertaken of the Clyde Laboratory operation. The results of this change will be a significant reduction in laboratory operating costs.”
Frank Willsdon
Refinery Manager

The project is scheduled to commence in late August 2005 when all petroleum storage will be moved to the new site and individual oil company terminals will be decommissioned.
Included in the laboratory management agreement will be the opportunity for Intertek Caleb Brett to conduct outside 3rd party analysis in an environment of expansion and development. This will include providing testing services to a bio-diesel plant that will commence construction at the site within the next few months.
