Snowline Gold Corp
The Ask: Snowline Gold selected Minconsult to construct over 100 drill, pump, and helicopter pads in the remote, mountainous terrain of Yukon’s Selwyn Basin. The project required comprehensive risk assessments for mountain hazards, including rockfall and severe weather. We deployed mountain safety technicians, embedded rescue personnel, and real-time monitoring systems to manage risks throughout construction.
The Result: over 100 structures completed with zero lost time incidents, exceeding client expectations for safety and efficiency in one of Canada’s most demanding environments.Retry,
Woodfibre LNG
The Ask: When their drilling contractor needed platforms built on cliffsides and tidal shorelines for Woodfibre LNG’s geotechnical program, they turned to Minconsult. We constructed custom drilling platforms using specialized rope access systems and customized engineering for each environmentally sensitive site.
The Result: completed ahead of schedule with zero safety incidents, meeting the highest HSE standards.
