Case Study
Xenith Consulting was engaged to undertake a Fugitive Emissions Estimate and a Concept Study to identify solutions to reduce Scope 1 emissions for one of the largest open-cut mining operations in Australia.
The study was undertaken by a multidisciplinary team comprising Gas Specialists, Geologists, Mining Engineers and Business Analysts. The study complied with NGER’s (National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting) requirements and included geological modelling of 11 gas boreholes.
Coal Seam Gas onsite power and other Flaring options were designed and were cost modelled. Scenarios with various gas drainage drill hole spacing and seam gas utilization (flaring, transportation, power generation) were modelled to allow a reduction of the open-cut mine Scope 1 emissions.
As part of their decarbonization strategy, a data check process was undertaken to ensure accurate and reliable data is available to the client for their investment decisions.
