PNG Remote Camp

The Project

The brief from the client was to design an innovative solution using rapid deployment Camp Covers to completely cover a remote mining camp with high rainfall, located in the highlands of Papua New Guinea. The covers had to create a dry and mould free environment over accommodation and recreational areas for the mining personnel.

UFS designed the Camp covers with the following design parameters and key elements:

  • Rapid deployment and fast installation
  • Camp containers had to provide the foundation without modification
  • Shipping methods & logistics had to encompass movement from PNG ports to the highlands by helicopter
  • To be relocatable
  • Provide a completely dry environment for accommodation

The covers provide the ideal solution against the high rainfall and remoteness of the location.
