Shenhua Watermark

GHD recently signed a contract with Shenhua Watermark Coal Pty Limited to provide services for the Watermark Project in Australia.

The Shenhua Group, one of China’s leading energy companies, was recently awarded an exploration licence by the NSW Department of Primary Industries (DPI) near Gunnedah in New South Wales that contains more than one billion tones of accumulated coal resources.

The GHD team will assist Shenhua with:

  • Community consultation services, including the establishment of a Community Consultative Committee and the creation of a project website.
  • Environmental approvals, including preparation of a Review of Environmental Factors (REF) and Environmental Management Plans (EMP).
  • Field/office based supervision and Technical Management of the drilling program, including Geological Logging.
  • Resource Model development and Coal Quality evaluation
  • Hydrogeological Field Programme supervision and monitoring including the study of the Namoi Water Catchment Area.
  • Mine Development Schedule.
  • This project follows on from review works carried out by GHD in response to the special conditions outlined in the Watermark Exploration Licence as specified by the NSW DPI.

Our China and Newcastle offices have collaborated very closely to create a strong relationship with Shenhua. The project is also being supported by GHD staff from Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane offices.
