Initial project requirements

Origin Energy has a long heritage in energy exploration, production, power generation and retailing. As a leading provider of energy to homes and businesses throughout Australia, they are working to focus on affordable, cleaner, and smarter energy solutions.

Currently investing in a range of development and renewable energy projects, Origin Energy contacted Flexshield looking for a solution to noise issues on their offshore drilling platforms.

The solution

Flexshield tailor-designed and manufactured Sonic Curtains as a flexible yet permanent solution. Being easily installed, the Sonic Curtains (or acoustic curtains) are the perfect solution to any industrial machine or plant noise challenges.

The curtains can be used to control noise in:

  • Oil and gas mines
  • Power stations
  • Factories
  • Workshops
  • Earth and road works,
  • And in fact, most industrial and environmental situations!

The results

The Operations Superintendent for Origin BassGas stated, “We had a noise issue for years on our offshore platform and no one ever thought about Flexshield’s Sonic Curtain solution. With one simple phone call I knew I was on the right track – they were extremely helpful.”

“Flexshield provided me with a permanent yet flexible solution to our unique noise control situation. Our team offshore can now sleep at night with no distractions. Thanks, Flexshield.”
