South Cross Electrical Engineering (SCEE) has won $50 million in contracts with BHP in Western Australia’s Pilbara region.

This recent $50 million package now includes further works on the village security project, with upgrades to access, lighting and monitoring systems.
At BHP Iron Ore’s Nelson Point operations at Port Hedland, SCEE’s electrical business arm was awarded an electrical and instrumentation (E&I) package by the principal contractor of the Port Debottlenecking project (PDP1), CPB Contractors.
SCEE will provide on-site assembly, installation and construction verification of all E&I components on greenfields and brownfields sites.
Work is due to commence in May and be completed in 2023.
The company has origins in electrical contracting but has diversified over the past six years to cater to commercial, infrastructure, defence, telecommunications, industrial, energy and utilities work – more broadly categorised as the infrastructure, commercial and resources sectors.
The resources sector remains the smallest of the three, with revenue for the 2021 financial year of $46.2 million, compared to more than $100 million in the former two sectors.
However, SCEE has been a part of some significant projects in the past few years.
