Over that time, we’ve developed a deep understanding of the site and its operations, helping to deliver optimal efficiency, productivity and cost performance. We look forward to continuing this strong record of delivery with the Curragh team.”
In addition to this contract, Thiess will continue delivery of its existing scope of works, including the operation and maintenance of the client-owned 1400 tonne electric rope shovel and ultra-class trucking fleet.
