Experts in Commercial & Industrial Gas Services: The Story of Gasworks
About Gasworks
Founded by Wayne Braden, Gasworks was built on a vision to bring highly specialised skills and technical excellence to Australia’s gas industry.
From the outset, Wayne and his team earned recognition for their ability to deliver safe, innovative, and reliable gas solutions, completing major projects for clients such as the Brisbane Elgas Supply Depot, Movie World theatrical effects and stunt show, Bechtel-Curtis Island LNG site, Santos sites, QLD Fire Department Training Academy and the ANZAC Eternal Flame in Brisbane.

Over the past two decades, Gasworks has grown into one of Australia’s most trusted names in industrial and commercial gas services. Our success is driven by a commitment to safety, precision, and innovation - tackling complex projects that demand expertise beyond conventional gas fitting.
As the industry evolved, so did we. From our early days supporting large-scale residential projects, to our current focus on heavy industry, commercial infrastructure, and live fire training systems, Gasworks has continually adapted to meet the changing energy landscape.
Today, Gasworks has more than 30+ years of gas experience and is proud to partner deliver for leading organisations including Queensland Health, Queensland Fire Department, Bechtel Australia, Elgas, and the APA Group — delivering end-to-end gas solutions that set the benchmark for quality, safety, and performance.
