"The CHPP comprises three processing modules implemented in seperate stages and a single product handling system. Each stage is a 5 Mt/a coking ROM feed coal, based on the design of 6,000 operating hours annually. Processing 15 Mt/a on completion, UHG will be one of the larger coking coal mines in the world. The advanced plant is a customised solution to maximise the coking coal product yield."
"Sedgman has been delivering services in Asia for many years, beginning in Indonesia and India. Our China experience began in the early 1990s. In partnership with a local engineering firm, we were involved in the delivery of over 30 coal plants. This led to the establishment of our Beijing office in 2008 to focus on servicing coal projects in Asia.
Mongolia has experienced a period of rapid expansion, particularly in coal. We have been at the forefront of that growth, undertaking major contracts in the emerging coking coal region of Tavan Tolgoi in the Gobi Province. As the first company to enter this market through our management of Mongolian Mining Corporations Ukhaa Khudag coal project in the South Gobi desert, our progress has set the standard for future coal handling and preparation plant (CHPP) development in the region. We are delivering the 15 Mt/a CHPP, which will be one of the larger coking coal plants in the world. We also commenced our first international operations contract with the award of the Stage 1 operations management contract at the site (see project profile below)."
