Engineering automation, built in Perth.
OreNova was founded in Perth to remove a longstanding constraint in the resources sector. Study phase engineering consumes a large share of a project budget before anyone knows whether the project is worth building.
We partner with Tier 1 and Tier 2 EPCM firms and engineering consultancies, implementing our proprietary AI inside their mechanical design and estimating workflows. They keep the client, the templates and the sign off. We supply the engineering underneath.
The tools are our own. We built them in house for the two phases that consume a study: engineering, from equipment sizing through datasheets, equipment lists, process flow diagrams and 3D models; and estimating, through to an AACE Class 4 CapEx, OpEx and basis of estimate. They now run on projects for EPCM teams globally.
Cost and equipment data can come from OreNova's database or be tailored to yours, so estimates reconcile with the systems your business already trusts. Every output is checked by a principal engineer before it leaves.
A study phase package in one month means more projects evaluated on the same budget.
Three commitments.
Faster Turnaround Time
A complete engineering and estimate package within one month, freeing your engineers to focus on higher value work.
Higher Accuracy & Quality
Outputs are auditable, traceable, and validated by principal engineers before release.
Increased Net Profit
Fixed scopes within assigned engineering hours, aligned with EPCM budgeting and cost tracking frameworks.
Eight questions, answered.
We integrate AI into mechanical design workflows to produce process reviews, equipment calculations, datasheets, equipment lists, process flow diagrams, 3D models and a Class 4 estimate. The result is faster, more accurate and fully auditable study deliverables.
Any mineral processing study, with the greatest value where timelines are tight and flowsheets change often. Time savings grow with project size.
We work as a contract engineering partner on a defined scope, within assigned hours, over about one month.
Engineering comes first: process review, sizing, datasheets, equipment list, PFDs and 3D model. After a design meeting with you, we produce the Class 4 CapEx and OpEx estimate and basis of estimate.
Two engineers, drawing on more than 150 years of combined experience, validate every deliverable before release.
Hourly, like traditional engineering. AI efficiency means fewer hours for the same result, and the billing fits existing EPCM budgeting and cost tracking.
As accurate as the inputs allow. Every output passes internal verification and a principal engineer review before release.
No. Outputs arrive in familiar formats and can be tailored to your documentation standards and templates.
Yes. Client data is never used for AI model training without explicit written consent.
