The Study Engineer will report to The Arckaringa Joint Venture Owner's Team, comprising a small number of experienced project management staff to oversee progress on the FFS, to ensure that there is a close and transparent working relationship with the Study Engineer and objectives and timelines are met within budget. The Arckaringa project is very large scale and complex and the Study Engineer needs to be capable of pulling all the design and environmental aspects together into a coherent project plan.
Building on Altona’s PFS work, the primary objective of the FFS is to develop sufficient engineering definition of all sections of the project to facilitate an accurate capital cost estimate and an operating cost estimate of the overall project.
The major project sections (mine, CTL and other future products and power generation) and their supporting infrastructure will be planned and managed to maximise engineering and economic synergies.
There will be simultaneous identification and planning related to environmental issues to ensure the project’s a long-term sustainable outcome.
The Bankable Feasibility Study, comprising both the PFS and the FFS, will be capable of supporting the financing of the Project in final form.
