Thiess Pty Ltd

Full description

Thiess acquired the Hydrographic Services Group from Rural Water Corporation (VA 4234) in 1995. The purchase occurred within the context of a restructuring of the Victorian rural water supply industry. The restructuring meant that the Rural Water Corporation was abolished, several new agencies were created and some functions were privatised.

Since purchasing the Hydrographic Services Group, Theiss has undergone several administrative changes. In 2014 Thiess's civil engineering business was merged into Leighton Contractors, now CPB Contractors, and it is likely Hydrographic Services were included in this merger. As of 2024, Theiss almost exclusively focuses on mining projects.
