Ok Tedi Dewatering Pump Cable: Type 209 1.1/1.1kV 3x25mm² for PNG Extreme Rainfall Mining
Annual Precipitation Extreme: Ok Tedi (Ok Tedi Mining Limited) operates in the Star Mountains of Papua New Guinea, a region that ranks among Earth’s wettest mining zones. Annual rainfall exceeds 10,000 mm (10 meters)—more than 15× the global average. This extreme precipitation creates: (1) Continuous pit inflow of precipitation + groundwater, (2) Constant mud and sediment transport through dewatering systems, (3) Year-round 100% relative humidity in pit and underground areas, (4) Sediment concentration in pit sumps up to 15–20% solids by volume (vs typical 5–10% for other operations).
Ok Tedi(奥克泰迪矿业有限公司)运营于PNG星山区,该地区是地球上降雨最多的矿区之一。年降水量超过10,000毫米(10米)—全球平均水平的15倍以上。这种极端降水造成:(1)持续降水+地下水补给坑道,(2)持续通过排水系统的泥浆和沉积物运输,(3)全年100%相对湿度在坑道和地下区域,(4)坑道集水池的沉积物浓度高达15-20%固体体积分数(vs其他运营的典型5-10%)。
