The challenge

Silos 3 and 4 were discharging, but material stayed stuck to the walls. Even with the discharge system running, 2 to 3 meters of compacted material remained around the entire perimeter of each silo.

How we did it

Our rope access technicians always worked from the top down, benching by hand with shovel and pick, level by level. Each silo took two to three months of work.
