Safety gear for one of Australia’s most remote mining regions
The Tanami region in the Northern Territory is home to one of Australia’s most remote and significant underground gold operations. This large-scale mine sits deep in the Tanami Desert, far from major towns and services, and relies on strict safety practices to protect fly-in fly-out crews working in challenging conditions.
At Locksafe, we provide industrial safety equipment that matches the demands of remote mining sites like Tanami. Our range of products helps workplaces isolate energy sources, control access to machinery, and support safe maintenance and servicing. Quality gear matters in places where maintenance support may be hours away and weather conditions can be extreme.
Lockout Tagout and Safe Isolation in Tanami
Remote operations like those in the Tanami Desert depend on lockout tagout systems to protect workers during maintenance, servicing and shutdown activities. This is true underground as well as for surface plant, power systems and mobile equipment.
A proper lockout tagout setup helps teams:
- Keep electrical and mechanical systems safely de-energised
- Prevent unexpected equipment start-ups
- Communicate work status across teams and shifts
- Meet WHS expectations under Australian safety regulations.
Because Tanami’s workforce is fly-in fly-out and operates under tough environmental conditions, having reliable isolation equipment on hand is critical. Site supervisors rely on products that are easy to use, hard-wearing and supported by consistent procedures.
