Tenova Completes New Stacker for QBH Terminal
10/08/2009 - Tenova SEMF recently obtains the Practical Completion Certificate for its Queensland Bulk Handling coal stacker installation located in Brisbane.
Tenova SEMF has recently obtained the Practical Completion Certificate for its Queensland Bulk Handling (QBH) Pty Ltd. coal stacker installation located in Brisbane.
The twin-boom coal stacker with tripper was designed and constructed for the Fisherman Islands storage facility expansion part of the QBH coal terminal, fully owned by New Hope Corp. Ltd.
Tenova SEMF’s contract was for design, fabrication, mechanical fit-out, delivery, erection, and commissioning, forming part of QBH’s wider stockyard upgrade, which is expected to be completed by late 2010.
The stacker was successfully delivered three weeks ahead of schedule; the nominally 100-m wide stacker has twin booms and a capacity of 2750 tonnes/hour. It is rail mounted, traveling up to 165 meters and will generate two 20-meter high parallel coal stockpiles.
Tenova designs and supplies advanced technologies, products, and services for the metal and mining industries. Tenova operates close to its customers through a network of 33 companies based on five continents.
