Recent Professional Experience

Harry Holland & Associates Pty Ltd

Independent Quality Verification and Certification Services for BMA & Anglo American - Currently

providing independent quality verification and RPEQ certification services to BMA and Anglo American

Mining for both the design & construction of the relocation of a major water supply pipeline within the

new Grosvenor Mine at Moranbah..

Independent Quality Verification and Certification Services for BMA & Anglo American

Providing independent quality verification and RPEQ certification services to BMA and Anglo American

Mining for both the design & construction of the relocation of three major water supply pipelines within

the Moranbah North Mining Lease area.

Due Diligence Studies – SunWater Major Pipeline Assets – Led a small team within Aurecon

Advisory Pty Ltd carrying out engineering and technical due diligence investigations and studies into

nominated major pipeline assets of SunWater. The studies were aimed at presenting a comprehensive

Due Diligence Report to Queensland Treasury in regards to those assets in readiness for potential

leasing to the market, should the Government resolve so to do.

Independent Design Review for BMA & Middlemount Coal. – Providing independent design review

for BMA & Middlemount Coal for the relocation of some 15 Km of water supply pipeline together with the

relocation of an associated pump station.

Project Management & Independent Quality Verification and Certification Services – Providing

Project Management Support Services as well as independent quality verification and RPEQ certification

services to BMA for both the design & construction of the replacement of 3.4 Km of one of their major

water supply pipelines.

Pipeline Route Reconnaissance & Route selection – QGC – Carrying out a high level review of

proposed routing for three 145Km pressure pipelines associated with the LNG industry. This was

followed by actual on-site route reconnaissance & finalised route selection. The review and route

selection led to a 20 kilometre reduction in total route length and the selection of more favourable & cost

effective construction conditions, which together resulted in significant capital and ongoing operational

cost reductions.

Independent Quality Verification and Certification Services - Providing independent quality

verification and certification services to BMA and Anglo American Mining for the construction of major

water main pipeline relocations and replacement together with the construction of a land-bridge over

one of the main replacements.

Curtis Island Water and Sewerage Services – Responsible for carrying out a concept, route

reconnaissance, route selection and constructability study for the provision of water supply and

sewerage service connections from Gladstone to new LNG processing facilities proposed to be

developed on Curtis Island. The recommended project solution included carrying out 2,200 metre HDD

drives beneath the harbour from the mainland to Curtis Island. The project was successfully constructed

and commissioned and is now providing WS & S services to Curtis Island.

In the interim, whilst permanent works were designed and procured, carried out the design & detailing of

temporary water supply & sewerage ‘hire-in’ pumping systems to provide interim services to LNG

facilities under construction on Curtis Island. Provided procurement services as well as installation and

commissioning support to get the temporary systems up and running.

Carried out a similar concept study for making a 132 kV mainland electricity supply available to Curtis

Island which was also subsequently implemented.

Proposed Moranbah To Alpha Pipeline. Appointed by Hancock Coal Pty Ltd in 2011 to carry out a

Peer Review of the design of the proposed 25,000 ML per annum 220 Km Moranbah to Alpha Pipeline

and pumping system. As an outcome of the reviews alternative pipeline routings and pumping system

configurations were developed and proposed that offered a saving of twenty per cent in capital costs

and eleven per cent in NPV terms as compared to the original design.

Victorian Desalination Project. Responsible for carrying out and leading a small team in 2010 for the

Thiess/Degremont Joint Venture ‘Proof Engineering’ and ‘Peer Reviewing’ the hydraulic design of the

transfer pumping system and approximately 100 Km pipeline required for The Victorian Desalination

Project. The reviews included the hydraulic design and optimisation of the pipeline & pumping system as

well as independent surge analysis of the system together with a review of proposed surge mitigation

measures. As an outcome of the reviews alternative system configurations and surge protection

measures were developed that delivered savings to the project capital cost in excess of $60 Million.

Western Corridor Recycled Water Project in Brisbane and South East Queensland – In 2006 Harry

carried out the preliminary engineering configuration, sizing and optimisation of the 200Km+ transfer

pumping system for the above project. Activities included:

– Preliminary route reconnaissance;

– Route selection;

– Concept design;

– Preliminary system design & optimisations; and

– Preliminary estimates for the whole transfer pumping system.

For Project delivery purposes the Western Corridor Recycled Water Project was divided into a number

of separate but interlinked Alliance work packages. One of those packages was the Eastern Pipeline

Alliance. Harry was the Engineering Manager for the Alliance from 2007 to 2010 and represented one

of the Alliance NOPs on the Alliance Management Team.

The Eastern Pipeline Alliance was responsible for the design and delivery of some 37Kms of trans-

urban pipeline, interception works, low-lift and high-lift pump stations to transfer up to 121MLD of Class

D effluent from three wastewater treatment plants to an Advance Water Treatment Plant as the Stage 1

works; together with 76Kms of trans-urban pipeline, through and around the eastern suburbs of

Brisbane, and two major high-lift pump stations to transfer up to 112MLD of RO treated water as the

Stage 2 Alliance works. The total value of the delivered Alliance works was $550M

Rockhampton to Gladstone Pipeline. Preliminary route reconnaissance, route selection, engineering

design & optimisation of a proposed 106 Km and 22,000 Megalitre per annum capacity pipeline from

Rockhampton to Gladstone

Megalitres per annum. Mr Holland carried out the detailed engineering configuration, sizing and

optimisation of the system and went on to become the Design Manager for the project, leading the

team completing the detailed design and tender documentation which was required to be

expedited under a ‘fast-track’ project delivery approach.

Wyaralong Water Treatment Plant – Design Leader for the detailed design and documentation of the
