Tropical Cyclone Veronica - Western Australia Iron Ore
update
With safety as our highest priority, BHP Port and Rail
Operations in Port Hedland, Western Australia, are ramping-up after
being suspended due to Tropical Cyclone Veronica. While initial
inspections show no major damage to our operations, isolated
flooding both on site and sections of the rail leading into the
port has limited train movements. Consequently, the port is
currently operating at reduced rates and not expected to return to
full capacity until later this month.
Our preliminary estimate of the impact of Tropical Cyclone
Veronica is a reduction in production of approximately 6 to 8
million tonnes (100 per cent basis), and as a result, our 2019
financial year production and unit cost guidance are currently
under review.
Final production impacts and revised production and unit cost
guidance will be disclosed once they are finalised.
We are engaging with our customers and intend to meet our
contractual commitments.
