Mining Solutions - Decommissioning

Just because the operations in your mine have been completed doesn’t mean that the machinery and equipment are at the end of their shelf life. With commodity prices rising, there is always a demand for equipment at other mining projects.

Working with DHL means that you’ll have a logistics partner who understands your needs, and we can arrange for temporary storage and even facilities for restoration and refurbishment. We can design and execute supply chains for establishing regional Laydowns where equipment can be brought, evaluated, repaired and sold.

We have a comprehensive understanding of the exemptions and discounts offered by Global, Regional and Bilateral Trade agreements in place, and can assist you in selling the mine equipment.

Once the plant, equipment and structures have been dismantled, the land itself needs to be restored to its former condition. This process involves specialists in water management and environmental scientists who will repair any land or water contamination. DHL has many partnerships with organizations around the world and can bring you peace of mind that this logistical element will go as flawlessly and fluidly as possible.

Moving data is every bit as important as moving cargo, especially with the complexity of decommissioning the plant, equipment and machinery and moving it in a defined sequence. This is where DHL can step in and establish a control tower in your time zone which will ensure that you are kept informed of what is happening at all times.

At DHL, we understand that budgets are not as flexible as we would all like at times, and that sometimes you need people on the ground to assist you as well as freeing them up on new projects happening in other parts of the world.

With DHL on board, we can offer you our Implant services where DHL personnel are temporarily employed by you on site until your staffing can be sorted out effectively. Implants are transactional in cost and we use only experienced members of our team on site.
