Decmil in $65m BHP extension

Decmil has been awarded a $65 million contract extension with BHP Group for expansion works at the Mulla Mulla village in the Pilbara.

Under the stage-two contract, Decmil will relocate and install 632 rooms to the village, which will support current operations at Mining Area C and the South Flank project.

The contract also includes the installation of 10 laundries and the supply and installation of new verandas.

The scope also includes internal roads, drainage and concrete footpaths, with work expected to begin immediately.

The work adds to a $13 million early works package announced in August last year, and the $75 milion stage-one package, which was flagged in November last year.
