NEW IRON ORE TRANSSHIPMENT AND CONVEYOR SYSTEM FOR VALE INTERNATIONAL SA SINGAPORE



Solutions for logistics supply chain are almost infinite. A solid knowledge of the markets, the material and how it is handled, the technical and operative know-how is necessary to produce a solution which delivers value to the Customer.

The design and fabrication proposed to our Customer machines and equipment are coming from our experience of more than 100 years of Bedeschi know-how in bulk handling of sticky and abrasive materials.

These are just some of the requirement that customers rely on the expertise of the Bedeschi Group and these are the reasons why Vale International SA awarded Bedeschi in February 2011 to supply a new iron ore transshipment and conveyor system.

The cargo handling system of the OFT is sized and designed for the main purpose to transfer Iron Ore by means of heavy duty cranes and conveyor belt system, from large ore carriers up to 400.000 DWT to bulk carrier up to cape size.

• Conveyor system to be designed for continuous heavy duty operations.

•Standards such as ISO FEM DIN and VDE will be observed for Cargo Handling plant.

• Nominal convey capacity used for design criteria is:

•Fixed conveyors, related machinery and Ship-loader: 5000 t/h

•Will be calculated for iron ore handling, with specific density 1,8-2,4 t/m3

•Hoppers, belt feeders 1500 t/h

•Design capacity6000 t/h

The delivery of whole supply is scheduled by the end of July 2011.

The characteristics Vale Northern System Iron Ore are given in the following Table:

The system will be able to transfer iron ore from large vessels into cape size vessels at a rate exceeding 100,000 tons per day. The cape size vessels will then transport the iron ore to various ports in the far east which cannot directly accommodate Valemax vessel at the berths. By implementing of this system Vale will be able to achieve huge freight savings thereby increasing their competitiveness.
