He made major contributions to the development of the Australian fibre-optic cable industry with his concept for using hollow, liquid-filled fibres to replace glass which was not easily purified. He also developed the Synchro-Pulse CDT (controlled drop transfer) arc-welding system, which greatly improved the quality of weld achievable. For this development he received a CSIRO Medal for Research Achievement in 1985. Around 1980, Ogilvie was appointed Assistant Chief of the CSIRO's Division of Manufacturing Technology, a position he held until his retirement in 1989.

In 1985 Ogilvie was awarded the CSIRO Medal for Research Achievement for the development of a unique system for controlling the transfer of weld metal droplets in electric arc welding.
