About Us
Anthony Jones
Owner Operator
As a veteran operator of almost 40 years, I have a high respect for the commitment it takes to excel in the industry and carefully oversee our small team and their development.
CIL/Adsorption tanks
Some may promise high productivity or quality of work however our track records are a true indication of actual capability. Below is an example where we were called to finish a CIL tank that another company had been unable to adequality complete. Our superior finish is on the right
Here at UHP Solutions we deliver both high productivity and quality of work. The proof is in the finish (please see below photos). Our track record speaks for itself, with consistent performance at various sites over the years: KCGM, Sunrise Dam, Genesis Minerals, Bluebird, Pontoro, Plutonic, the list goes on with well over 100 tanks to our resume.
Our Blue-Collar clients, see typical handover times for UHP blasting as:
3-6 working shifts on tank sizes between 400 & 500m2 – UHB/Poly
5-9 working shifts for tank sizes 500 & 900m2- UHB/Poly
Understanding the refurbishment process helps keep QC of our work as good as it can be thereby keeping sandblast and paint application times to a minimum. This results in predicted schedule times staying on track.
We achieve this through investing in the latest technology. We have access to an arsenal of pumps & equipment. We know our equipment capabilities; Operators are trained in the correct use of this equipment and spend many hours maintaining the assets under my guidance. We carry enough spare parts to mitigate most common onsite machinery issues, minimising downtime.
Sag & Ball Mills
Hydro-Demolition
Easiest way I have found to explain. Take a block of ice and hit it with a hammer, Shatters!
Take that block of ice and run it under a tap, Melts! Hydro-demolition will behave in a comparable way to running a block of ice under a tap.
High pressure water removes the unwanted concrete from the asset leaving behind a sound structure without micro cracking defects.
When we take a jack hammer to a concrete slab or structure there is a high possibility the concrete will show impact signs of damage known as micro cracking.
- No micro-cracks in the remaining structure, leaving a long-lasting repair of high quality
- No vibrations, dust
- Allows selective removal
- Rebars are clean and intact
- Improves bonding between old and new concrete.
- Significantly faster than mechanical jackhammering & without the musculoskeletal risk
Abrasive waterjet cutting
Working together with Water Cut Australia (WCA), UHP Solutions are regularly engaged to remove & abandon gas and oil wells.
Site: Thevenard Island, located approximately 22 kilometres (14 mi) off the coast of Onslow in the Pilbara region of Western Australia
Client: Chevron
Overview: First explored in the late 1960s, Thevenard Island has been home to the Chevron-operated Thevenard Island Joint Venture oil and gas facility located around 22 kilometres from Onslow.
The facility commenced producing oil in 1989, with approximately 150 million barrels of oil produced over its 25-year life until production ceased in 2014. The area will be returned to the WA Government once it is restored to a condition similar and compatible with the adjacent environment.
Task: to remove 13 redundant oil wells via internal cut, up to 4mrts below low water tidal level.
Plant and Asset cleaning
Here at UHP Solutions we respect the value of site assets and have invested in a range of equipment to help prolong the life of mining plant, equipment and process areas through regular cleaning and inspection.
Our lighter duty equipment is very versatile and well suited to the widest range of cleanup jobs for example- cleaning up around CIL tanks, pathways, under conveyers, workshops, plant & machinery.
We offer high quality equipment including 500psi high-volume water blasters,
550CFM vacuum unit with 1000ltr interceptor and 3” suction line.
Mobile conveyers weighing just 70kg and capable of manoeuvring around obstacles up to 16mrts in length when combined.
1.2t excavator with numerous attachments.
Mini dingo with four in one bucket.
Pipe Cleaning Services
Product buildup in flowlines and heat exchanger tubes can easily be remove via our water jetting processes.
High pressure water is delivered through many different nozzles ; screamer, rat, bomb, and flushing It is very capable of removing scale and product blockages which can be harder than concrete. Fast and efficient, water is the go-to tool to keep flowlines moving product as they were designed to do with minimal downtime.
