Extraction and production systems are fundamental to the recovery of mineral resources. Our focus is on developing low-impact mining methods that support downstream value creation and ensure the supply of certified green products. This approach is crucial for facilitating the accelerated deployment of net-zero technologies, which are essential to meeting global decarbonisation targets. To achieve these goals, we employ numerical simulations and conduct experimental studies tailored to exploration and production systems operating in complex and extreme environmental conditions. Our research and development efforts are comprehensive, encompassing operations safety and hazard management, operational optimisation, emerging effective planning techniques, and novel extraction methods and systems for deep and unconventional deposits.
We take pride in our collaborations with industry partners, working together to refine current techniques and drive forward innovations. These partnerships are vital for translating our research into practical applications that benefit the industry and contribute to a more sustainable future.
