WHYALLA STEELWORKS PROJECT
CLIENT: WSP
CAPEX: AUD 50M
DATES: 2018
LOCATION: Whyalla, SA
The Whyalla Steelworks, under new ownership, is exploring ways to increase the capacity, by up to 50%, and improve cost efficiency through improvement of the current plants equipment and harnessing lost energy of the current plant.
OUR INVOLVEMENT
Capisce Qs was engaged through the owner’s engineering management team to develop cost estimating guidelines and assisting in preparing and reviewing independent cost estimates of the current projects. Further activities have included providing probabilistic risk estimate ranging facilitation.
VALUE ADDED
Capisce Qs continues to provide probabilistic risk estimating and review services across a number of priority projects. This service has enabled informed decision making on project feasibility in a timely manner allowing focus on developing and improving value initiatives on the projects with a higher chance of success.

OLYMPIC DAM – BROWN FIELD EXPANSION WATER SUPPLY STUDY
CLIENT:WSP & BHP
DATES: 2018
LOCATION: Olympic Dam, SA
Water is a critical commodity in the mining and processing of ore on site. The planned capacity increase of the expansion study will require additional water of varying qualities. This portion of the study was to upgrade or replace various parts of the existing water transfer and treatment process.
OUR INVOLVEMENT
Capisce Qs worked as part of the design team to produce a first principles Class 3 Estimate to BHP’s guidelines for Capital and Operation cost of the proposed design. In addition to estimating, the team facilitated and participated in a cost risk workshop to determine the appropriate level of contingency through statistical analysis.
VALUE ADDED
Assisted the WSP team with establishing capex and opex costs for this critical infrastructure. Working with the team we conducted detailed risk workshops to provide adequate contingency ranging suitable for a project of this nature, allowing progression of the project through BHP gating requirements.
