James Fisher to Share New Decom & CFE Technologies at D&A Australia 2026

James Fisher and Sons plc (James Fisher), a global provider of specialist marine and energy solutions and CODA member, will share information on new technologies at D&A Australia in Perth on 23-24 June.

These include SEABASS™ and SEABASS™-MLS; a modular rigless well plug and abandonment system used in the North Sea, and JetFlow 100 – a powerful controlled flow excavation tool which cuts through soils and clays and provides mass flow excavation in a single pass.

Backed by a local team headquartered in Perth, Western Australia, James Fisher will share learnings from well decommissioning campaigns worldwide alongside news on decommissioning services and tooling.

Phil Ash, Head of Sales – APAC, will be joined by William McLennan, Technical Support Manager and Mohd Shakir bin Sofian, Business Development Manager – APAC on stand 24 at The Crown Perth.

The event follows a successful D&A Gulf of America in Houston in April, where James Fisher representatives engaged with operators, contractors, regulators and supply chain partners on the execution of safer and more efficient late-life asset decommissioning and well plug and abandonment campaigns.

Phil Ash said:

“We’re looking forward to engaging with the wider decommissioning community at home here in Perth. D&A Australia is a valuable platform for sharing insights and best practice, and for understanding the unique challenges facing stakeholders in Australia and Asia-Pacific.”

Francis Norman, CEO and Managing Director of CODA, will also be presenting at this year’s event, alongside delegates from the South Australian Government and supply chain.

From Carbon to Cost: New Tool Brings Integrated Insight to Decommissioning Strategy

sustain:able has developed a decommissioning emissions forecasting tool designed to support more informed, evidence-based decision-making at asset end-of-life.

The tool quantifies emissions across all phases of decommissioning, including dismantling, transport, disposal and site reinstatement. It enables operators to compare scenarios such as full removal, partial removal and leave-in-situ, highlighting where trade-offs arise between carbon, cost, health and safety exposure, and environmental impact.

By linking emissions to operational activity, the tool provides insight into program intensity and efficiency, helping to identify opportunities to reduce both emissions and cost. Outputs are structured to support comparative assessment and regulatory submissions, providing clear, auditable evidence to underpin decision-making.

As regulatory and stakeholder expectations continue to evolve, integrating carbon alongside cost, risk and environmental considerations is becoming increasingly important.
