Mining Project Development in Vietnam

Project schedule and budget were both constrained, and a typical nine-month process needed to be completed in six. To adhere to this, the project team broke down the work into smaller packages and engaged multiple contractors to complete the work on time. Internal and external review periods were closely monitored to maintain progressing deliverables.

Product details for project

The project, implemented by our client Vietnam Mining Company, aims to facilitate the transfer of mineral resources from the mining area to processing facilities in Hanoi. The project requires the installation of 24-inch and 48-inch ore transportation pipelines, and after the completion of the first phase, the ore transportation capacity will reach 150,000 tons per day. When the second and third phases are put into production, the transportation capacity of the project will increase to 450,000 tons per day and 600,000 tons per day, respectively.

The 400-kilometer ore transportation pipeline connects the mining area to Vietnam's 300,000 tons/day Hanoi processing plant and 150,000 tons/day Ho Chi Minh City processing plant.

The scope of work for the project includes engineering design, procurement and installation of:

Marine piping, pipe cleaners, sludge traps and high-pressure separators

Configuration using well casing, pipes, valves and other related components used in mines

Mine process improvements

Sewer, utility and off-site drainage systems

Improvements to electrical and instrumentation systems and heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems

Seawater inlets and outlets, wastewater treatment

Seawater desalination, water refining

Installation of some piping on-site at the pump station

The project uses seamless steel pipes to ensure transportation reliability and efficiency.
