ESS Support Services Worldwide provides large-scale accommodation centres that house thousands of workers and are a cross between a very large hotel or resort facility and a small town or village. By providing all of the amenities needed day in day out, we create a sense of community for miners who are often a long way from home and rotating in and out of their work environment.

As the market leader in this field, our experience is unrivalled. We provide facilities for Chilean mining camps thousands of metres above sea level as well as mining camps in the Australian gold fields. We also service oil and gas fields in Kazakhstan and Algeria, and major construction projects in Canada and Qatar.

Mining camps and on-site facility management

Drawing on our expertise, experience and innovation, we work with you from mobilisation of a new mining project and the management of on-site facilities, to providing high-quality food service and creating a healthy lifestyle environment for your mine site.

ESS is a member of the largest catering and support services company in the world, Compass Group, delivering vital workplace support for people working in some of the most hostile and demanding terrains in existence. From day one you’ll find our team on the ground working closely with clients, designing facilities and project managing to ensure we deliver all that is required within budget and on time.
