The Middlemount Coal Mine (Mine) is an open cut coal mine located approximately 270 km west-northwest of Rockhampton and approximately 10 km south west of the township of Middlemount. The work was required to be performed both ON & OFF mine lease for Peabody Energy and Yancoal Australia.
This particular section included gas and water gathering pipelines, along with the added complexity of installation of HV & FOC reticulation, often commingled within the trenches with the PE Gas & Water pipelines.
Pneumatic testing was progressively completed in five defined sections, allowing a sequenced handover of the asset to commence early gas extraction.
Completed on time and on budget, with zero defects, despite significant challenges of slow rock excavation and inclement weather.
