The construction of the SKA-Low telescope infrastructure will result in the largest and most advanced radio telescopes on Earth and will comprise of 131,072 “Christmas tree-shaped” antennas, grouped in 512 stations, each with 256 antennas. Construction has began on the first terrain clearing earth work at Inyarrimanha Ilgari Bundara, the CSIRO Radio-astronomy Observatory in WA.
The initial stage of this project for WEL and Ventia was to construct the camp, where the 200 employees will stay on site.
As the 200-man camp operations will run over the next 4 years, WEL and Ventia are partnering to run the camp operations, including maintenance, catering and day to day operations.
WEL is excited to be partnering with Ventia to manage and operate the 200 man construction camp for the next four years.
