Moranbah Operations Facility

Direct, High-Performance Support Across the Bowen Basin

Strategically positioned in the heart of Queensland’s premier coal region, the AJ Lucas Moranbah Operations Facility is the logistical and technical backbone of our northern drilling campaigns.

This fully equipped, purpose-built hub provides the infrastructure, specialised engineering, and rapid-response support required to maintain peak operational efficiency, reduce lead times, and deliver reliable campaign performance across the Bowen Basin.

Comprehensive On-Site Capabilities

Our Moranbah footprint is engineered to take the complexity out of field logistics.
By managing maintenance, inspections, and equipment readiness in a controlled workshop environment, we ensure our assets arrive on-site fully compliant and ready to perform.

Advanced Technical Workshops & Maintenance

  • Precision Breakout Bench & Bucking Unit
    Specialised capability supporting the safe, efficient assembly, disassembly, and servicing of downhole motors, drill string components, and directional Bottom Hole Assemblies (BHA).
  • Controlled Servicing
    Completing tool breakouts, inspections, and maintenance off-site reduces well-to-well turnaround times and improves equipment readiness.
  • Surface Treatment
    On-site paint and blast capabilities to maintain asset integrity and protect equipment against harsh operating environments.

The Integrated Advantage:
