Utah Point Port Hedland
site overview
Utah point is a bulk load out facility located on Finnicane island in Port Hedland.
The stockyards consist of several stacking and conveying systems which receive ore fines from multiple mine sites in the Pilbara. The fines are bought in by quad road trains then the product tipped into large dump hoppers. From there the product is loaded onto a series of conveyors and transferred onto the ship loading circuit,
Currently QUBE bulk materials handling operates and maintains the stockyards.
Personnel are mostly residential in the township of Port Hedland and South Hedland.

Site information form
The Utah point expansion project is located at stockyard two right next to the BHP Billitons ore handling plant. The stacking reclaiming system is still in construction phase and will help double their output. Construction workers were housed at the Landing camp grounds which are a series of caravans decked out inside with modern amenities. The project was really good to work on. Plenty to do and being so close to Port Hedland you were able to make use of the facilities in town.
