A client engaged Northern Strands Group of Companies (NSGC) to supply specialized rope tensioning equipment and qualified operators to support the rope up of their shaft sinking stage and service winches at a mine near Sydney, Australia. The NSGC team overcame the hurdles of overseas logistics, international work visas, and the 18-hour time difference. The rope-up of their shaft sinking winches was successful.
This project is another great example of the NSGC advantage. With Certified Sales and Rentals expertise, they were able to assist in selecting and supplying the right equipment for the job. Fortis then provided an experienced crew to travel and complete the work. As the industry-leading mine hoist rope and conveyance handling contractor, this project was another routine job for the group of companies. NSGC looks forward to providing its services to more projects globally and representing Saskatchewan as an industry leader.
