The contract is expected to provide employment opportunities for about 400 people.

Last year, Monadelphous secured a contract valued at $240m to provide maintenance services for BHP’s Whaleback, Jimblebar, Easter Ridge, Mining Area C and Yandi sites.

In July last year, BHP started construction on the $3.61bn South Flank iron ore project after securing the state government approval.

South Flank is located near BHP’s Mining Area C operations and will replace production from the 80Mtpa Yandi mine, which will reach the end of its mine life by the mid-2020s.
