APT Water was contracted to design and construct two mobile headworks trailers by a leading mining contracting company for BHP Mt Keith. The package was part of a larger borehole and pipeline product being undertake on this site.

The package was designed as a completely portable trailer design for the dewatering borefield. Some key features of the trailers include:

• DN150 galvanised steel pipework with high quality Bermad pressure control and relief valves
• Variable speed drive control switchboard with battery backup
• Removable blast shields and mounting structure
• FEA analysis carried out on structural framework
• ADR compliant trailer with approved VIN numbers
• All drawings and MDR documentation to client requirements
• Designed, constructed and testing from our Wangara facility

This was an exciting project to be involved in with a new and rapidly expanding client. The successful delivery of this project demonstrates APT Water’s ability to design and construct large packages to suit any of the major mining company’s specifications.
