Most recently, the company has acquired 12 new Mack trucks, which all feature 550 horsepower engines and are road train rated. The trucks have each been named after APC’s most valuable assets – their employees.

With these new additions, APC now has the logistical requirements to accommodate many more loads per camp move. The company can also send their buildings on rail where needed, with their own trucks dropping camp equipment off and picking up at each end.

In other news, APC’s first Effluent A waste water system prototype is now out in the field. The next edition of The Australian Pipeliner will feature an update of use and operation of this system. The Effluent A system demonstrates APC’s strong commitment to the environment, reducing water usage by recycling wherever possible.

While the pipeline industry continues to provide APC with a range of camp supply opportunities, a number of mining companies have recently been turning to the company for core housing at their project sites.

Earthworks have already commenced at their new Monarto Site. The staff at APC say they are looking forward to stretching their legs at the new 140 acre site.

Meanwhile, the team at APC has also welcomed a new addition in Paul Kerr, who has taken on the role of Production Controller. This will allow Gino Martino to spend more time in the field and more time with clients.
