We provide a range of services to many of the major players that operate in the UK Coal Mining sector including Hatfield Colliery Partnership, Hargreaves Surface Mining and Maltby Colliery Ltd (now closed).
The mining sector in the UK presents a number of unique challenges. Over a number of years of supporting businesses in the mining sector we have developed tailored solutions to meet these challenges.
Businesses are severely budget constrained as the sector continues to operate against a backdrop of historically low coal prices. The efficiency of operation and control of expenditure is vital to continuing operations – our Mythril Mines Software Package provides detailed analysis and reporting of all underground and surface operations allowing managers to make timely, informed decisions.
The coal face can be several kilometres away from the Control Room – requiring a secure, robust communications infrastructure. Control and Network Equipment needs to function reliably under extremely harsh working conditions.
Our networks are designed to withstand such conditions and redundancy is designed into the system. SysServers’ Thorin Network Monitoring software constantly monitors all aspects of the network and the attached devices, predicting potential issues before they arise. This is backed up by a 24 hour a day response service.
Environmental and Geological Risks are a constant consideration – in particular Gas levels need to be monitored constantly – our Mythril Mines Gas Detection Software provides real time monitoring of Gas levels and provides reports that satisfy regulatory reporting requirements.
