Off-Pipeline Power For Crushing Operations

Quarries operate where pipelines don't reach. Crushing cycles demand consistent power. UNRG deploys integrated LNG logistics and distributed generation engineered for remote production sites and harsh quarry environments.

Discuss Production Requirements
Production Challenges

Remote Operations Require Reliable Energy Infrastructure

Aggregate operations—rock crushing, mining, sand/gravel processing—demand dependable, continuous power in remote locations. Standard industrial solutions fail under remote quarry conditions.

Remote Quarry Operations

Rock crushing and aggregate processing sites operate in undeveloped locations—far from utility infrastructure and grid connection.

Operators must generate all power independently or transport diesel across difficult terrain

Continuous Production Demands

Aggregates operations run 24/7 to meet market demand. Equipment must perform reliably under sustained operating loads.

Power interruptions halt production lines. Single equipment failure cascades through entire operation

Diesel Delivery Logistics

Remote crushing sites require constant fuel supply delivered by truck across rough terrain and long distances.

Supply delays cause production shutdowns. Diesel cost volatility erodes operating margins

Harsh Environmental Exposure

Quarries operate in dusty, corrosive, extreme-temperature conditions. Equipment degrades rapidly in exposed environments.

Maintenance costs spike. Equipment lifespan shrinks. Downtime increases unpredictably

Temporary Expansion Constraints

Seasonal demand spikes or new production zones require infrastructure deployment within weeks—not months.

Capital-intensive fixed systems sit idle. Operators cannot scale quickly without significant capex

Infrastructure Mobility

Quarry sites exhaust resources and shift locations. Operations move to new deposits every 3–5 years.

Fixed infrastructure investments become stranded. Redevelopment capital costs mount

Production System

LNG Fuel Logistics

Integrated fuel delivery system bringing LNG to remote crushing operations. Single tanker replaces repeated diesel trucking trips.

Production System

Continuous Production Support

Reliable power sustains 24/7 crushing, screening, and processing operations. Redundant systems ensure equipment failures don't halt production.

Production System

Scalable Generation

Add modular units as production increases. Remove units when operations slow. Pay only for capacity in use.

Production System

Field-Hardened Systems

Equipment engineered for dust, vibration, thermal extremes, and continuous duty. Designed for quarry environments.

Production System

Infrastructure Mobility

Relocate generation systems to new quarry sites as exhausted deposits shift operations. Capital assets follow production.

Operational economics: Traditional approach requires permanent diesel generators + regular fuel delivery to each quarry site. UNRG approach: modular units move with production. LNG delivery replaces diesel trucking. Capital efficiency increases. Operating costs drop.

Production Deployment

Aggregates Deployment Scenarios

From primary crushing to processing, temporary expansion to remote development—aggregate operations span diverse power requirements and geographic constraints. UNRG infrastructure adapts to every production profile.

Primary Crusher Operations

High-capacity rock breaking at quarry face requires 2–5MW of sustained power for primary crushers, conveyors, and auxiliary equipment.

UNRG Solution

Containerized gensets deploy to crushing zone. Multiple units provide redundancy. Power draws directly from on-site generation. Zero grid dependency.

Secondary/Tertiary Processing

Multi-stage crushing and screening operations need 3–8MW across distributed processing points—each with independent power demands.

UNRG Solution

Modular units placed at each processing stage. Coordinated fuel delivery supplies all stages. Production flows smoothly without power bottlenecks.

Sand & Gravel Washing

Washing and classification circuits require consistent, reliable power. Equipment runs continuously throughout operational shifts.

UNRG Solution

UNRG generation supports continuous duty cycles. Redundant systems eliminate downtime risk. Equipment runtime maximizes.

Temporary Capacity Expansion

Seasonal demand surges or new production zones require 3–6 month power infrastructure deployments without permanent capital investment.

UNRG Solution

Mobile gensets arrive pre-configured. Site generates power immediately. Redeploy to new location when expansion phase ends—capital preserved.

Remote Quarry Development

New quarry sites operate far from utility infrastructure. Initial production requires power infrastructure before permanent facilities exist.

UNRG Solution

UNRG systems deploy within weeks. Production starts with temporary power infrastructure. Facilities develop in parallel. Capital efficiency improves.

Off-Grid Aggregates Mining

Mountain, desert, or isolated location aggregate operations have no utility access. Diesel hauling creates operational bottlenecks.

UNRG Solution

Field-hardened systems operate in extreme conditions. LNG delivery replaces diesel trucking. Infrastructure scales with mining output.
