01 · Who we are

Supply, consultancy and design under a single line of accountability.

Talisman Pacific Engineering works where specification, procurement and construction usually contradict each other. We provide consultation to mining and LNG operators, civil and resource contractors, and government, then carry the same advice through to certified supply and delivered material.

Five years on Tier 1 mining projects sits behind every recommendation: draglines, electric rope shovels, ultra-class haul fleets, maintenance strategy and the logistics that keep them running in remote, corrosive and seismic conditions.

01 What we specify, we can supply. What we supply, we can stand behind.
02 Every claim documented — certificates, calculations, records.
03 Planned for PNG conditions, not ideal ones.
02 · Capabilities

Six services, one accountable partner.

Logistics · Design · Procurement
01

Logistics & freight forwarding

Sea, air and inland movement into Port Moresby, Lae and remote sites. Consignment planning, customs documentation, oversize and heavy-lift coordination, arrival records signed on site.

02

Procurement & certified supply

Structural steel, plate, wear parts, ground engaging tools and mechanical spares against standard. Mill certificates issued per consignment, vendor qualification, expediting and inspection release.

03

Engineering design & drafting

Mechanical and structural design for what can actually be fabricated and erected in country. Shop detailing, repair and modification design, seismic and C5-M marine corrosivity allowances.

04

Mine planning & technical studies

Scoping through to feasibility. Pit and dump sequencing, waste haulage profiles, productivity modelling and cost per bank cubic metre, with the assumptions written down and testable.

05

Mechanical fleet & maintenance strategy

Fleet selection and match factor, dragline and shovel availability, component changeout planning, shutdown scope build and critical spares holding sized to real lead times.

06

Carbon footprint reduction

Diesel burn per tonne moved, haul road and cycle optimisation, electrification and trolley assist assessment, scope 1 and 2 baselines reported in the same units your finance team uses.

03 · End to end

From mine plan study to delivered fleet to lower burn per tonne.

One engagement, seven stages, the same team answering for each. Hover a stage to see what it covers.

Stage 01 Hover
Stage 01 Scope & site assessment

Constraints on the ground. Access, ground conditions, power, workshop capability, crew availability.

Stage 02 Hover
Stage 02 Mine plan & study

Sequencing, material movement, productivity and cost modelling. Assumptions listed, sensitivities run.

Stage 03 Hover
Stage 03 Design & specification

Drawings and specifications written for local fabrication, erection and maintenance access.

Stage 04 Hover
Stage 04 Fleet & equipment selection

Excavator, shovel, dragline and truck matching against the plan, not against a brochure.

Stage 05 Hover
Stage 05 Procurement & logistics

Sourcing, expediting, consolidation and shipment with certificates travelling with the goods.

Stage 06 Hover
Stage 06 Delivery & commissioning

Site receipt, install and commissioning support, spares lists and handover documentation.

Stage 07 Hover
Stage 07 Carbon & efficiency review

Measured burn, cycle and availability against plan, with the next reduction step costed.

Advice from someone who has stood under it.

Talisman was founded to remove the gap between the people who specify equipment and material and the people who have to run it. Five years on Tier 1 mining operations, covering draglines, rope shovels, ultra-class haulage, shutdowns and the supply chain behind them, informs every study, drawing and purchase order we issue.

Hover a card to bring it forward
01 “The fleet study came back with numbers we could argue with. The recommendation held once we were in the pit.” Mining Operations Manager Open cut coal operation
02 “Material arrived with certificates attached and nothing left to chase. For a remote site, that is the whole job.” Project Engineer Civil and resources contractor
03 “They told us what the diesel reduction would actually cost before we committed. No overselling, no surprises.” Technical Services Lead Resources group
