Control Systems, End To End.
Catapult Engineering is a boutique systems integrator working across power and utilities, oil and gas, and mining and minerals. We are vendor agnostic and hands-on — equally at home running a project from concept to commissioning, or sitting on your side of the table as owner’s engineer.
45+ Years

Our Expertise
Deep enough to build the system, broad enough to specify it and to review someone else’s.
SCADA Systems
CitectSCADA, Yokogawa FAST/TOOLS, Ignition, FactoryTalk View and ClearSCADA — maintained, modified and built from scratch, at every size.
PLC And RTU
Rockwell, Schneider Electric, Siemens, Honeywell, GE and more. IEC 61131-3 logic for the very simple and the very complex alike.
DCS
Siemens PCS7, Yokogawa Centum and Emerson DeltaV — centralised control for complex process units, integrated with what you already run.
Industrial Networks And Fieldbus
DNP3, IEC 61850, Modbus, CIP, IEC 104, Profibus, Profinet, MQTT, DeviceNet, ControlNet, HART and Wireless HART.
Lifecycle And Obsolescence
Legacy systems that predate the internet, kept in production and then replaced — with downtime minimised and production maintained throughout.
Owner’s Engineering
Asset lifecycle planning, engineering standards and specifications, procurement and tendering support, and independent review.
Functional Safety
IEC 61508 and IEC 61511 across the full safety lifecycle — HAZOP and CHAZOP, assessments, modifications and proof-test planning.
Optimised Control
PID tuning, loop redesign and custom energy-optimisation controllers, from process engineers who understand your plant’s dynamics.
Industries We Work In
Heavy industry, in Australia and overseas.
01
Power And Utilities
Large-scale generation into the NEM. Hydro and renewable generation control, governor tuning, AEMO and TNSP communications, full control system upgrades, and NEM trading system interfacing with power plants.
02
Oil And Gas
Gas compressor control and gas wellhead controls, plus the supporting infrastructure around them — gas generators and LV power distribution.
03
Mining And Minerals
Crushing and flotation circuits, smelting process units, and the supporting infrastructure that keeps them running — including acid plants.
04
Water And Wastewater
Pumping stations and treatment plants, chemical dosing control, process control, and the telemetry that ties a dispersed network together.
Tell Us What You Are Trying To Solve.
An obsolete controller, a controller that will not tune, a tender that needs reviewing, or a project that needs running from the front. Start with a conversation — there is no charge for working out whether we are the right fit.
