Civmec Limited has secured a series of new contracts and extensions worth more than A$400 million, with delivery expected across 2H FY26 and FY27, building on an uplift in activity heading into 2H FY26.
“We are absolutely delighted to be entrusted with this significant package of work. We are honoured to be trusted to deliver, particularly given the location and complexity of the scope, which plays to Civmec’s strengths," Civmec’s chief executive officer Patrick Tallon said. "BHP were among our earliest clients and sustaining this healthy relationship makes this award especially meaningful, a further demonstration of our capabilities, and our proven, proactive and collaborative delivery model.”
BHP Port Hedland civils package adds to PDP2 scope
Civmec has won a significant contract with BHP for the Port Debottlenecking Project 2 (PDP2) at Nelson Point, Port Hedland, covering concrete and earthworks for installation of a sixth car dumper (CD6), which is also being manufactured by Civmec at its Henderson fabrication facility.
The scope includes earthworks and concrete placement to accommodate CD6, plus broader concrete works for new conveyors and transfer stations. Civmec will establish a new batch plant, design and install new piling for CD6, and manage temporary works.
It also includes the design, supply, installation and maintenance of a temporary dewatering and recharge system, bulk excavation for the new car dumper structure, and formwork, rebar and placing concrete (FRP) works for CD6 and all conveyor and transfer station footings, along with associated shotcrete and waterproofing.
The PDP2 civils award follows a recent steel fabrication package for the same project, covering about 700t of structural steel modules, including one shuttle, 4 maintenance gates, a CD6 enclosure and other structures.
Fortescue charger works and maintenance wins add diversification
Civmec has also been awarded a contract to construct Light Mobile Equipment and Support Mobile Equipmentcharger facilities and pit power infrastructure at Fortescue’s Eliwana and Flying Fish mine sites.
Work will include construction, installation, verification and commissioning of multiple charger facilities, ranging from prefabricated DC distribution units to integrated AC chargers, as well as civil works and electrical integration for transportable pit power substations. Civmec said the modular substations will support Fortescue’s rollout of electric excavators and drills as part of its decarbonisation objectives.
Separately, Civmec said it continues to secure maintenance contracts in Port Hedland and Gladstone, citing its expanded footprint in both regions and increased demand for integrated service capability as it scales maintenance solutions across major resource hubs.
