Home » ÉTUDES DE CAS » 8 équipes multitâches au Sud Soudan
En 2017, TDI a été contracté pour fournir au SLAM une unité multitâche, chargée de mener des tâches d’inspection et de déminage au Sud-Soudan.
Les huit équipes TDI ont réalisé diverses tâches pendant la durée de ce contrat : neutralisation et destruction d’explosifs (NEDEX), enquête technique et non technique, dépollution du champ de bataille (DCB) ou encore évaluation générale de l’action contre les mines (GMAA). Les équipes ont également entretenu la liaison avec la population lors de leurs visites communautaires, et les ont sensibilisées aux risques liés aux engins explosifs (EORE).
Les équipes ont enlevé plus de 6 200 munitions non explosées et 110 000 munitions d’armes légères. Plus de 2.725.000 m2 de terres ont été nettoyées suite à la dépollution des champs de bataille (DCB), et 1.485.000 m2 supplémentaires via la préparation des terrains.
Après avoir d’abord rejoint le secteur de l’action contre les mines en tant que démineurs avant de passer chefs d’équipe, deux membres du personnel sud-soudanais ont été promus au poste de directeur technique de terrain chez TDI. Malgré les restrictions de déplacement liées à des conditions routières et météorologiques difficiles, les équipes de TDI ont mené à bien l’ensemble de leurs tâches. Le projet a pris fin à la mi-2020.
“Exceeded all my expectations on this work, the professionalism and standard of the work process was exceptional... TDI played a big part in keeping my schedule on track.”
“I have found TDI to be very thorough and professional in carrying out their demining activities and I have no hesitation in recommending their services to prospective clients.”
“TDI continues to adapt to the changing requirements of the operational environment and we would have no reservations on recommending them for inclusion in further projects in challenging conditions.“
“TDI have conducted all operations with professionalism, enthusiasm and initiative. They have kept production going during extreme weather, when other subcontractors have not been able to maintain their operations.”
“The work completed to date has been to a standard exceeding expectations of WesternGeco.”
“(TDI) have conducted themselves in a professional and dedicated manner in all interaction with the Sudanese authorities and local population. In addition to this they have worked closely with the National Mine Action Centre when required and cooperated fully with all our partners in Darfur for which we are very grateful.”
“I am indebted to TDI for the intense and comprehensive training of Sibro’s National EOD Operators and the continuing mentorship of these teams…It is my fervent hope that TDI should continue its good work”
“We can certify that the professional relationship established early last year has yielded success in implementing a complex project and delivering the expected results. We value TDI as a reliable partner and are extremely satisfied with the cooperation to date.”
They have provided a professional and high level of clearance support as well as project management throughout the contract period. We would recommend them to any future contractor.”
It is very impressive to see how much you and the team have managed to achieve in extremely
challenging circumstances. The project is really building momentum.
In May 2020, armoured vehicles of the Force had been silted up for several days so a recovery
truck was needed. TDI personnel were escorted to the site and did an outstanding and effective
job of assisting the vehicles. I would like to personally thank all those involved for their
professionalism and their reactivity.
