Posted 08/01/2014 Since 2006 MacTaggart Scott has sponsored the “Submarine Institute of Australia Award for Engineering Excellence”. The award is presented to the Royal Australian Navy submarine engineer who has made the most substantive contribution to the Collins Class submarine enterprise during the previous twelve months. This year the recipient was LCDR Troy Battishall. Troy works in HMAS Sterling and is responsible for mechanical systems on board the Collins Class submarine. Troy’s responsibility includes MacTaggart Scott’s emergency propulsion unit and many of our external actuators. The citation on the award, prepared by Troy’s bosses, CAPT Mark Potter and CDR Peter Foster, reads as follows: “A very experienced and technically astute officer LCDR Battishall has been a stand out in the field of submarine marine engineering throughout 2013. Utilising his comprehensive knowledge of the Collins Class systems and a thorough practical approach to problem solving, he has provided an exemplary level of service to the submarine engineers and to Commander Royal Australian Navy Submarine Force in maintaining the vital strategic capability of the Collins Class submarine. Highly regarded throughout the wider submarine community LCDR Battishall is an exemplary role model and mentor to young engineers. His dedication and commitment to submarine engineering and operations are in the finest traditions of the Royal Australian Navy and he is a most worthy recipient of the SIA Engineering Excellence Award.“ Richard Prenter presented Troy with his award during the Submarine Institute of Australia Technology Conference recently held in Adelaide.
