Bechtel is one of the most respected global engineering, project management, and construction companies, and a cornerstone of innovation in the industry. Bechtel has completed Australian projects that have helped grow the nation. Guinea is the world’s second largest producer of bauxite, which is its primary export, representing 90% of the country’s overall exports. Sangarédi is mining town and sub-prefecture in western Guinea, where bauxite is mined.

Bechtel Australia Pty. Ltd required to supply and install a 1,100 man camp in the mining town of Sangarédi, Guinea. The project required a camp that is complete with kitchen, dining, recreation, ablution, and medical facilities.
