Mine Dewatering 

Maximise productivity and safety, minimise cost and impact with data-driven dewatering. 

All mines need an effective, robust and flexible dewatering strategy. For many operations, dewatering is essential to make the mine commercially viable. For others, it’s vital for safety and mine productivity. But - from bore field extraction, through water processing and desalination, to re-injection – it’s a complex process with significant environmental risks. It's also increasingly unpredictable as climate change alters exposure to water stress or flood risk. Currently, 50% of the world’s iron ore production is exposed to extremely high flood occurrence¹.


Our expert mining consultants and data scientists, using Dynamic Driver Modelling, will work with you to map and model all the drivers of water level for your specific mine site and bore field. 

The resulting near-real-time model empowers your mining teams to respond instantly to changing conditions, ensuring the optimal balance of productivity, safety and cost while minimising environmental impact. Our rapid scenario analysis and powerful visualisations simplify and accelerate remote and on-site decision-making while a robust audit trail ensures that decisions are transparent, auditable and understandable.  

Our solutions can help you:

Maximise mine productivity

Dynamic Driver Modelling and near-real-time data enable your on-site team to make the informed and timely trade-offs that ensure maximum productivity. 

Ensure mine safety

Timely alerts based on near-real-time data and rapid scenario analysis let you move quickly and plan ahead to ensure the safety of your mining operations. 

Respond quickly to changing conditions 

Understand and address early variations before divergence disturbs mine plan execution. Respond quickly to optimise dewatering operations. 

Empower your mine site team 

Knowledge is power. Give your on-site teams the ability to quickly make informed decisions on trade-offs for operational productivity. 

Monitor and manage from anywhere

Our SaaS model means your control operators, site teams and engineers can monitor and manage multiple dewatering operations from anywhere in the world. 

Ensure decisions are transparent

A full audit trail ensures decisions are transparent, auditable and understandable. It also lets you re-run and learn from past decisions.  

Maximise mine productivity, improve efficiency and minimise environmental impact with our mine dewatering solution built on advanced, dynamic real-time modelling.
