The global mining industry faces a number of challenges, from declining ore grades and increasing energy requirements to growing community expectations and stricter regulations.
它导致技术中断的出现，因为公司转向自动化和数字化，不仅有助于解决这些挑战，而且还可以以可持续的方式提高安全性能和达到效率。
Because QB2 is more of a greenfield project—with the opportunity to reimagine how the operation will run—it is leveraging both new and proven technology applications in use at other Teck operations and elsewhere around the world, that will make it Teck’s most innovative and integrated operation when it begins production in the second half of 2021.
“We’re incorporating a range of technology solutions to further improve safety, sustainability, productivity, reduce costs, as well as further improve workforce planning including inclusion and diversity,” says Dale Webb, General Manager, Operational Readiness. “At QB2 we see integration of technology, process and people as the foundation of how we work—it will power our success by allowing us to be more creative, flexible and adaptable.”
这只是一种在QB2上应用的一些例子。
国际奥委会促进了协作环境和改进的决策
QB2将是Teck的第一个操作，以包含远程集成操作中心（IOC）。IOC位于圣地亚哥，将集中决策所需的所有资源和数据汇集在一起，以帮助实现更好的运营绩效。在QB2确定的主要福利中，改善了集成和灵活性，更具包容性的劳动力，更安全的工作环境和提高生产力。
“对现代和成功组织的合作和获取实时信息，”综合运营经理Mario Ortiz说。“在促进这种文化的物理位置，这为我们提供了这样的综合和整体视图，这是QB2未来成功的关键。”
续订业务系统倡议：在QB2中驾驶最佳系列系统
The operational needs of QB2 are also the initial focus of—and a key business driver for—the development of the Renew Business Systems initiative, an initiative that will see the implementation and integration of applications for Asset Management and Maintenance; Human Resources; Health, Safety, Environment and Community; Finance and Cost Management; and Contingent Worker Management.
“The Renew Business Systems initiative will bring together into an integrated environment many of the critical business applications in use across Teck today,” says Justin Webb, Program Director, Teck Digital Systems. “For QB2, this means that, from the outset, the operation will benefit from a best-in-class system that delivers operational efficiency, improved productivity, and the insight and information our business needs.”
自主运输意味着更安全，更高效的矿井
QB2混合fl预计开始操作eet of traditional and new autonomous haul trucks, with a five-year transition to a fully autonomous fleet. One of the key benefits of autonomous trucks is improved safety performance, since they allow people to be removed from high-risk processes, along with improved operational efficiency and availability of the haulage fleet. Teck will be offering training opportunities on autonomous haulage systems and also has a transition plan that provides opportunities for all workers for the future operation.
