MANAGING DIRECTOR, BASF SOUTH EAST ASIA AND BASF (MALAYSIA)
"The new site demonstrates the strengthening of our commitment to Singapore, where we now have four production facilities, in line with the Singaporean government’s stance on promoting specialty chemicals."
"Our Ferro Potiguar project will use dry stacking systems and will probably be the first iron ore project in the country to use recycled water in its operations."
"Roughly 20 mines have been built since 2010, taking an average of only 1.7 years to complete, which is significantly less than any other region globally. West Africa has an industry-wide track record of delivering projects both on time and on budget."
"We want to get into production in five years. It is ambitious, but relative to the rest of the planet, Québec is the place where it will be possible to get a permit in that timeframe."
"We have seen more and more firms having royalties wanting to secure their rights. They are publishing hypothecs on mining claims, and this has been a significant increase in our mining practice."
“La innovación es clave para la diversificación de servicios y apuntalar el crecimiento orgánico y, en Amphos 21, siempre hemos estado comprometidos con la I+D+i, participando en programas marco europeos que involucran a universidades, centros de investigación y empresas líderes del sector”
"Hemos trabajado en un proyecto de reminado en una mina donde realizamos una investigación extensiva y diversos modelamientos geotécnicos avanzados para garantizar la seguridad durante el proceso de explotación. El proyecto fue un éxito y generó beneficios económicos importantes para la mina de forma segura.”
"En la etapa de cierre final hay aspectos técnicos muy complejos en calidad de agua, desmontes, relaves, tajos abiertos o minas subterráneas, para los cuales todavía no se tiene una solución ingenieril definitiva."
"Automation is a new technology, acceptance is thus key. The newcomers in drilling have been a great influence on the more mature drillers in accepting and benefiting from this new technology."
