Enga Province, Papua New Guinea

PACIFIC ENERGY GROUP PTY LTD WERE ENGAGED BY PORGERA JV TO REINSTATE ELEVEN EACH 132KV GUYED STEEL LATICE TOWERS

Pacific Energy Group Pty Ltd was engaged by Porgera JV to reinstate Eleven Each 132kv Guyed Steel Lattice Towers. The period of the project was from February 2024 to April 2024. The 132kv Line runs from Hydes Gas Power Station in the Tari Valley to Porgera Gold Mine. Approximately 72km in length, with an elevation above sea level ranging from 4000ft to 10,000 feet.

This project was challenging to say the least. With no road access to each tower site and mountainous terrain with high rainfall, fog, and cloudy weather at most times during the day and night. Also, add in the jungle camping onsite. It was a project that had it all.

Our client demanded the highest safety standards and the most meticulous planning during preplanning, startup, and implementation. The culture, teamwork, and looking after your mates, were a true testament to all the people involved.

The client provided everything required for the scale of this project. Heavy Lift, Long Line and Crew Carrying helicopters, material, accommodation, and security logistics. It was a true credit to the Porgera JV for how they treated Pacific Energy Group Staff for their well-being and security.

The project exceeded all expectations with consideration of the mitigating conditions. All Eleven 132kv Guyed Towers were erected without incident.

There were also two redundant towers that had to be retrieved and reused from Mt Bee with an elevation of 10,000 feet above sea level.

With the successful outcome of this project. There is a vision for a long-term working relationship with Porgera JV and Pacific Energy Group Pty Ltd in the future.
