Description

The primary objectives of this project are to achieve optimal centrifuge operations through effective start-up, monitoring, maintenance, and shutdown procedures. Personnel will be required to adjust operational parameters in line with process requirements and perform lubrication, oil and grease replenishment tasks according to the manufacturer's specifications. The project is structured around key phases, including centrifuge operations, routine maintenance, and site support. This involves handling materials and shunting equipment with telehandler operations. The Supplier is expected to meet performance standards that emphasize zero safety incidents, timely fault reporting, and adherence to maintenance schedules.
