Optus Stadium – WA

Project Overview

The 60,000 seat Optus Stadium in Perth is a state-of-the-art venue, capable of hosting a multitude of world-class sport and entertainment events. ACOR provided Dangerous Goods Licencing and Risk Assessment for the project which was managed by Brookfield Multiplex for the WA State Government. Dangerous Goods Risk Assessments were undertaken for storage and handling operations of various bulk and packaged materials including hazardous substances, compressed gases, and pyrotechnic equipment (explosives). ACOR also facilitated Safety-In-Design workshops for the broader design and engineering teams in relation to Dangerous Goods Safety guidelines, hazardous chemical storage, Dangerous Goods loading docks and design of diesel generator.

Our Approach

The Perth Stadium and Sports Precinct’s flexibility is designed to accommodate unique requirements for a range of different events such as:

ACOR provided Dangerous Goods Licensing Design, Compliance and Risk Assessment services for the new Perth Stadium which is being managed by Brookfield Multiplex for the WA State Government. Dangerous Goods Risk Assessments were undertaken for the storage and handling operations for the bulk and packaged dangerous goods, hazardous substances, compressed gas cylinder and pyro technique equipment (explosives). Areas assessed included spill containment, ventilation, ignition sources, fire protection, separation, access and egress.

ACOR also facilitated Safety-In-Design workshops for the multi-disciplinary design and engineering teams and provided Dangerous Goods Safety guidelines and advice on numerous hazardous chemicals minor stores, Dangerous Goods loading docks and diesel generator rooms design.

Our Impact
