Client Overview
A gold mining operator in Papua experienced rapid degradation of haul roads due to
heavy rainfall and continuous 24/7 operations, causing slower hauling cycles and
increased fuel usage.
The Challenge
The operator needed a solution to:
- Reduce road erosion from extreme rainfall
- Improve road stability to support heavy hauling trucks
- Minimize frequent, costly road maintenance
- Increase hauling cycle efficiency
Road repairs were occurring every 10–14 days, directly affecting production.
Abel’s Solution
Abel introduced construction materials engineered for terrain challenges:
- Reinforcing Fibers & Cement Additives
Improved road compaction, load-bearing capacity, and erosion resistance. - On-Site Technical Assessment
Identified weak zones and recommended road structuring improvements. - Optimized Material Mix Guidelines
Provided a consistent formula for road building to maintain long-term durability.
The Results
Within 4 months, performance improved significantly:
- Road maintenance frequency reduced by 50%
- Hauling cycle times improved by 18%
- 12% reduction in fuel consumption
- Increased production uptime due to smoother road conditions
Client Testimonial
“Abel’s construction materials greatly extended our road durability, boosting hauling
efficiency and lowering maintenance costs.”
