Anglo American Aquila Mine: Pod Pump & Auxiliary Fan PLC Overhauls
PLC and HMI programming for two underground equipment overhauls at Aquila Mine, including Gasguard gas monitoring integration via Red Lion on the auxiliary fan.
Australian Power Equipment: 66kV Switchroom PLC Upgrade
Rapid PLC platform migration for a 66kV switchroom under tight pre-shipment timelines, from GE controller to Rockwell ControlLogix, tested and ready for site.
Mammoth Underground Mine: 11kV Switchroom PLC, SCADA & Relay Upgrade
Full control system upgrade for a relocated 11kV switchroom, PLC migration, CitectSCADA to PlantSCADA migration, FactoryTalk View ME HMI upgrade, Sepam and SEL relay configuration, and FAT.
Industrial Gas Plant: PLC Fault Investigation & CPU Upgrade
Diagnosed and resolved recurring GE/Emerson PACSystems RX3i communications failures at an industrial gas facility, temporary loan CPU deployed to restore production, permanent upgrade delivered.
Sugar Australia Silo Loader: Legacy PLC Program Extraction
Extracted the program from an ageing Omron PLC on a silo cleaning loader, ahead of a proposed controller upgrade for KSG Electrical and Sugar Australia.
Mackay Sugar: Real-Time AEMO Power Pricing Integration
Integrated live AEMO wholesale electricity pricing into Mackay Sugar's SCADA and PLC infrastructure, automating a process that was previously manual and slow.
Anglo American Moranbah North: Underground Equipment PLC & HMI FAT
PLC and HMI programming, network switch configuration, and factory acceptance testing for underground mining equipment overhauls at Moranbah North Mine.
Industrial Equipment OEM: Process Control Support Coverage
Ongoing on-call PCS engineering coverage for a Mackay-based industrial equipment OEM during planned leave periods, 16-hour daily standby, 30-minute response guarantee.
Shotcrete Machine: Micro800 Firmware Upgrade, Modbus Fault Resolution & FAT
Allen Bradley Micro800 firmware upgraded on an underground coal mining shotcrete machine, a non-obvious Modbus addressing fault diagnosed and resolved during FAT, and the machine dispatched to site with full commissioning documentation.
OT Cyber Security Incident Response: Queensland Sugar Mill
Emergency ransomware response across a live sugar mill OT environment. OT incident response procedures followed, critical systems recovered from verified backups, and a cybersecurity improvement roadmap established across the operator's mill sites.
Sugar Australia: OT Network Audit, Racecourse Refinery
Comprehensive OT asset audit and documentation for a major sugar refinery, capturing a complete current-state inventory before retiring engineers took their institutional knowledge with them.
