POWERUP Powerup, NRW’s Indigenous pre-employment program, provides opportunities for Indigenous candidates lacking entry level skills to break into the civil industry. Each Powerup Program is tailored to meet specific project requirements and guarantees all candidates employment with NRW on successful graduation.

The Program delivers competency based training using hands-on activities such as driving haul trucks and rollers, including OH&S practices and procedures, which is empowering for the candidates.

Since its inception in 2008, Powerup has progressed steadily, and over 250 graduates have been placed into the NRW workforce to date.

4 5 6 BULK EARTHWORKS NRW’s growth has been built on the reliable execution of high quality, safely delivered bulk earthworks projects for blue chip clients in the resources and infrastructure sectors across Western and Queensland.

Works undertaken include earthworks for ROM walls, stackers and reclaimers, stockyards, causeways, conveyor construction, car dumpers, railtrack and related ancillary works.

NRW’s capability and capacity to successfully deliver both large and small scale bulk earthworks contracts is self-evident with the subsequent award of variations to existing large contracts. Testament to this, were the award of the Nammuldi Haul Road overpass, Silvergrass Access Roads and Nammuldi Roads, all variations to NRW’s existing Nammuldi Below Water Table Contract for .

7 RAIL NRW has extensive experience in undertaking and successfully delivering major rail earthworks formations, duplications and sidings for major resource companies such as Samsung C&T, BHP Billiton Iron Ore, Fortescue Metals Group and Rio Tinto. The scope of works on these projects typically include drainage, drill and blast, culvert installation and bridge construction.

NRW has undertaken rail formation works in the remote region of the in for over a decade. Most recently, NRW undertook the Roy Hill Rail Project which has seen the construction of approximately 330km of heavy haul rail formation between the Roy Hill Mine and Port Hedland. Initially undertaking work on sidings for both BHP Billiton Iron Ore and Rio Tinto, NRW’s first major rail project commenced in May 2007 for Fortescue Metals Group comprising 106 kilometres of rail formation earthworks. To date, NRW has completed over $2 billion worth of rail projects including formation, duplication or rail siding bulk earthworks.

11 CONCRETE NRW has successfully managed and delivered concrete works alongside bulk earthworks since 2002. NRW has established a dedicated team of specialised concrete project personnel including project managers, engineers and supervisors to specifically manage concrete works packages.

NRW’s concrete capability includes foundations and structures for plant and associated infrastructure including ball mills, primary and secondary crushers, load out vaults and conveyor trestle foundations. To date, NRW has undertaken 161,000 cubic metres of concrete works, with the most recent contract being the Roy Hill Concrete Package for Samsung C+T at the Roy Hill Mine for over 53,000 cubic metres.

CASE STUDY

KARARA IRON ORE PROJECT Client: Karara Mining Limited | Value: $203 million Representing the first major concrete works package NRW had undertaken, the Project encompassed all of the preliminary construction work for the iron ore crushing and processing facility.

Works include the construction of major concrete foundations and structures for the plant and associated infrastructure, including ball mills, primary and secondary crushers, load out vault, and conveyor trestle foundations. The pouring of more than 50,000 cubic metres of concrete was a major component of the Project.

As well as site earthworks and concrete foundations, the contract included construction of site drains, 18 kilometres of access roads, a retention pond and the all-weather airstrip. The earthworks and road works for the plant site and associated infrastructure had an approximate total volume of bulk earthworks of 500,000 cubic metres of cut to fill and borrow to fill which took into account approximately 18 kilometres of road works.

This project was significant not only because it was the first major concrete package undertaken by NRW but it also showcased NRW’s ability to deliver a major project combining the two key civil elements of bulk earthworks and concrete structures. This allowed NRW to remove all interface issues that commonly occur between these disciplines, saving significant to construction time for our clients.

12 CASE STUDY

ROY HILL CONCRETE Client: Samsung C&T | Value: $225 million The award of the Roy Hill Concrete Package, builds on NRW’s existing relationship with both Samsung C&T and Roy Hill, and follows the construction of NRW’s 330 kilometres Roy Hill Rail Project and the Bulk Earthworks Contract undertaken at the Roy Hill Mine Site.

The scope of works included insitu and precast concrete, inground and aboveground services and detailed earthworks for the iron ore processing plant, stockyard, overland conveyors and crushing areas.

To meet the client’s tight deadlines, the project team was required to pour an extraordinary average of 1,500 cubic metres of concrete per week and in order to do so mobilised a peak of 660 personnel to the Project within the space of three months.

Specific works undertaken included:

• 53,000m³ of structural concrete;

• 500,000m³ of earthworks;

• 60 kilometres of underground and aboveground HDPE and carbon steel piping; and

• 5 kilometres of rail works for the stackers and reclaimers.

The project had a construction duration of ten months commencing in April 2014 with peak manning of 660 personnel.

NRW’s Project team met the Client’s deadlines whilst working hard to build a positive safety culture and comradery which resulted in an extraordinary interim safety achievement of 990,000 man hours with a TRIFR of zero. With the manual intensive labour carried out by the team, this was no easy feat and industry leading in terms of performance.

15 PORT DEVELOPMENT NRW has experience in a variety of port based earthworks. This includes breakwaters, marine offloading facilities and other port side earthworks in remote areas.

NRW understands the importance of working in close proximity to the coastline and customises the delivery of work to ensure all environmental concerns are taken into account.

CAPE PRESTON BULK EARTHWORKS Client: CITIC Pacific Mining | Value: $290 million

The Cape Preston Breakwater and Bulk Earthworks Contract for CITIC Pacific which included 5.3 million cubic metres of drilling, blasting and excavation undertaken to provide 1.3 million cubic metres of fill for the construction of embankments. In addition, 5.2 million loose cubic metres of rock and processed rock products were placed at the 3.2 kilometre Breakwater.

Constructing a breakwater more than 2.5 kilometres into the sea, presents an enormous challenge, particularly if the waters encompassing the breakwater are in a proposed marine park and island nature reserves are in close proximity. It was clear from project inception that the Cape Preston Breakwater and Bulk Earthworks Package represented a high environmental risk.
