Technology and Climate Change
Our commitment to safety and our zero harm to the environment policy is evidence that we do not take our social and environmental responsibilities lightly.
We partner with several industry leaders that provide world-class technology to minimise our environmental impact, such as our partnership with HYDI to install self-contained hydrogen injection diesel engine systems on our fleet of drill rigs.
Hydrogen Direct Injection
Central Queensland has partnered HYDI installing self contained hydrogen injection diesel engine systems on our fleet of drill rigs.
The self-contained hydrogen injection diesel engine system introduces hydrogen, produced on demand from pure deionised water into diesel engines, reducing the emissions of internal combustion engines.
Independent testing has shown the addition of hydrogen provides a cleaner burn and reduces harmful emissions by up to 80%.
The technology includes sophisticated electronics which are demand responsive to hydrogen flow to optimise engine performance.
Reducing fuel consumption by up to 14%, the hydrogen injection diesel engine system delivers an excellent return on investment with proven performance and reliability in multiple applications and environments, including sub-zero temperatures.
Using deionised water only, the system starts and operates only when the engine is running.
