Conveyors in Secunda

Secunda is the home of Sasol's Secunda complex, the world's largest coal-to-liquids plant, built around a huge coal supply from neighbouring collieries delivered by very long overland conveyors. The plant, its coal yards and the surrounding collieries form one of the most intensive conveyor operations in the country, with continuous production and a high demand for steel-cord and fabric belting, idlers, pulleys and cleaners. Bethal and Trichardt add maize and potato farming, and the old Evander gold field lies nearby. Winters are cold and frosty, summers are wet. Local contractors work on long-term maintenance contracts and permanent shutdown teams.

Frequently asked questions

What will the job cost in Secunda?

It depends on the belt and conveyor, the work involved, the crew and hours on site, consumables and travel. Send the form with the belt specification and a short description of the job and an installation contractor working in Secunda will quote you.

Can a crew come out for a breakdown in Secunda?

Many contractors run breakdown and standby crews. Say in your request that it is urgent, what has failed and the site access requirements, so the right people and materials are sent first time.

Do contractors meet mine and plant safety requirements?

Contractors who work on mines and plants are used to site inductions, medical certificates, risk assessments and lock-out procedures. List your site's requirements in the request so they can be priced and arranged in advance.
