Overview
Expressions of Interest for the Blind Bored Ventilation Shaft Project at Abergeldie Complex Infrastructure. Abergeldie has been engaged to deliver two blind-bored ventilation shafts as part of a gold-copper mine expansion in Western Australia. The project scope includes:
- Two shafts developed concurrently, each approximately 430 metres deep.
- 6.2 metre cut diameter, finished at 5 metre internal diameter.
- Significant surface civil works, permanent composite liners, annular grout, and shaft cover.
These projects are exceptionally rare in Australia, representing a unique opportunity for tunnelling and underground professionals.
We are specialists in delivering complex underground infrastructure across Australia and New Zealand, with proven tunnelling and shaft construction expertise in civil infrastructure and mining. Our in-house fleet includes Tunnel Boring Machines (TBMs), and we operate and maintain deep shaft blind boring rigs with skilled teams.
Opportunities
We are growing our tunnelling team and are seeking expressions of interest for this ventilation shaft project as well as other upcoming tunnelling projects. We are looking for experienced Project Managers, Supervisors, and Skilled Workers. If you have specialist skills in blind boring or other complex tunnelling works, we would love to hear from you.
These roles will be FIFO (ideally from the East Coast) to Western Australia. Beyond this project, there will be further opportunities across the Eastern states, so please indicate your location and availability in your application.
This is one of WA’s most remote projects, set in a striking desert landscape. The site offers a up-to-date village lifestyle with private rooms, gyms, sports courts, and diverse dining options, making rosters comfortable and social.
The project runs on a 2:1 rotation, with three shifts operating 24/7. For East Coast travellers, flights depart Sunday afternoon and return the following Monday, providing approximately 5.5 days at home per 3-week cycle.
Interested? Apply Now!
This is a rare opportunity to work on one of the deepest and most technically specialised blind bored shaft projects in Australia.
