KBK Underway

February 11, 2009

Twelve months after mobilizing the Basamuk operation for Ramu Nico, NCS Raibus has added the Kurumbukari (KBK) site to their growing list of successes in Madang. On 1st November, they served their first meals to over 200 client and contractor personnel at KBK.

There on the day to guide clients to their first meal was a very proud Bill Magando, who recently returned from specialist training on Lihir to take on the role of NCS KBK site manager.

While logistic difficulties with suppliers hampered the delivery of goods to site prior to opening, NCS Project Manager, Rob Bennetts, was on hand to ensure everything went smoothly. “It was a fairly challenging day,” says Rob.

Despite the hiccups, it was a very enjoyable occasion, particularly for Ramu NiCo Mine Site Manager, Deng Henbo, who said he was ‘very happy to start’.

NCS Raibus now provides three meals a day, with all fresh produce supplied by local KBK
farmers.
