Real-time error alerts are delivered when your SCADA system detect any drop in performance, so that a solution can be found quickly.
A developing tropical low to the north of WA’s Kimberley coast may become a tropical cyclone later this week, although this time its unlikely to directly hit the mining hubs and ports in the Pilbara and Kimberley. The animation below shows the sun rising over a tropical low located in the Timor Sea to the […]
Cool, dry air replaced uncomfortable heat and humidity on the weekend, causing parts of the NEM to see the lowest summer demand on record. After a prolonged period of heat and humidity caused by a blocking high pressure system in the Tasman Sea, a strong cold front with a polar airmass finally swept across southeastern […]
Destructive winds, the heaviest rain in decades forced major port, rail, and mining operations to shut down in the Pilbara, though many have resumed despite ongoing major flooding and highway closures. Severe Tropical Cyclone Zelia made landfall as a category four system near the De Grey River mouth last Friday afternoon. Despite Port Hedland missing […]
Severe Tropical Cyclone Zelia is intensifying rapidly to the north of Western Australia and is expected to make landfall as a destructive category 5 system on Friday, impacting mining, port and offshore oil and gas operations in the region. While Zelia only became a tropical cyclone on Wednesday morning, the system has intensified rapidly over […]
