Turnkey dredging systems for Australia’s mining sector

turnkey dredging systems for australia's mining sector

In the mining industry, water management is not just a necessity — it’s a cornerstone of safety, efficiency and environmental performance. Tailings dams lined ponds and water storage assets all play a critical role in production, yet they are often subject to sediment build-up, restricted capacity, and regulatory pressures.

For more than 15 years, Dredging Systems has been helping mining operators overcome these challenges with turnkey dredging systems designed for the toughest Australian conditions.

Built for mining, built for remote environments

One of the defining features of Dredging Systems is its ability to mobilise rapidly and deliver solutions in even the most remote locations. All equipment is road transportable, ensuring that mobilisation is straightforward, cost-effective and accessible across the nation. Whether a project is located in the Pilbara in WA, the Bowen Basin in Queensland, the Hunter Valley in NSW or further afield, Dredging Systems brings the right people, equipment and expertise directly to site.

The company’s long-standing experience in remote operations means clients can rely on efficient project planning and execution without the logistical headaches often associated with difficult-to-access sites. This adaptability has made Dredging Systems a trusted contractor across Australia’s mining heartlands.

Specialist fleet: amphibious and remote-controlled dredges

Mining environments are rarely uniform. Tailings dams can vary in depth, lining and condition, while access points are often limited. To meet these challenges, Dredging Systems operates a specialist fleet of amphibious dredges and remotely controlled dredges designed for versatility and precision.

Amphibious dredges are ideal for sites that require mobility across shallow, soft or unstable conditions, enabling operators to tackle projects where conventional equipment cannot perform. Meanwhile, remotely controlled dredges are purpose-built for lined dams and sensitive sites, ensuring that material is removed without compromising liners or other engineered structures.

By combining the right dredge with the right methodology, Dredging Systems delivers safe and efficient outcomes for every client.

Complete dewatering expertise

Dredging is only half the story. Once material is removed, it must be handled responsibly, safely and in line with regulatory requirements. With more than a decade of proven expertise, Dredging Systems provides comprehensive dewatering services tailored to client needs.

By offering multiple dewatering pathways, the company ensures every project has a sustainable, practical and site-specific solution.

A true turnkey service

Dredging Systems delivers complete turnkey dredging solutions. From initial scoping and planning through to project delivery and verification, clients benefit from a streamlined process under one trusted provider.

This end-to-end approach gives mining operators confidence that their critical water infrastructure is being managed safely, responsibly and efficiently.

Safety and reliability for 15 years

For Dredging Systems, safety is non-negotiable.

The company has built its reputation by consistently achieving strong safety outcomes, working in high-compliance mining environments where standards are exacting. From risk assessments to operator training and equipment checks, every step of the process is designed to protect both people and the environment.

This commitment to zero harm underpins every project, and it is one of the reasons why major mining operators continue to partner with Dredging Systems year after year.

Supporting Australia’s mining future

With mining operations expanding into increasingly remote and environmentally sensitive areas, the demand for safe, efficient and sustainable dredging solutions has never been greater. Dredging Systems is well-positioned to meet this demand with a combination of specialist equipment, proven expertise and national capability.

By providing turnkey dredging and dewatering services, the company not only helps mining operators maintain essential water assets but also ensures they remain compliant, efficient and productive well into the future.

With road-transportable equipment, amphibious and remote-controlled dredges as well as complete dewatering systems, the company delivers practical solutions for even the toughest sites.

Backed by a track record of safety, innovation and reliability, Dredging Systems is proud to support the ongoing success of Australia’s mining industry.
