Port Infrastructure for Mine Development in Remote Locations
This paper describes Westmar Consultants involvement in the provision of port infrastructure for Newmont Gold Company's Batu Hijau Copper Mine Development Project on the island of Sumbawa in Indonesia. Particular challenges on the project included poor geotechnical properties of soft marine sediments with respect to seismic performance, the presence of coral limestone intrusions within the soil mass, the random occurrence of long period waves generated by remote storms in the southern ocean, and the remote location.
