New Century Resources Mine
RtDUET Delay Accounting
- North-West, Qld, Australia
- Machine Centres: 10
The Century mine operated for 16 years producing Zinc concentrate until the original ore reserve was depleted and the plant mothballed. New Century Resources restarted operations and are reprocessing the tailings through the concentrator to extract the remaining zinc.
New Century did not have extensive systems in place when the plant was restarted and wanted to implement a strategy to improve the operation. Mipac had already been involved by providing support for New Century’s AVEVA PI System and was asked to scope and execute an automated delay accounting project. Mipac was engaged to implement RtDUET to capture and track delays in the concentrator to improve operation.
Project scope
- Facilitate a full-day workshop to establish delay accounting requirements.
- Develop scope of work, detailed execution plan and design specification.
- Procure, supply and install RtDUET on a dedicated server.
- Remotely configure RtDUET delay accounting system with 10 machine centres, automated triggers and out-of-the-box reporting.
- Develop tailored digital training materials and remotely deliver RtDUET training to the operators and engineers at New Century Resources.
Project highlights
- Robust, accurate and reliable delay accounting system implemented to automatically capture, track and report delay events.
- Improved identification of process bottlenecks ensuring maintenance activities were focused on the highest priorities.
- Greater collaboration across the organisation to optimise operations across the concentrator.
