PT Thiess Contractors Indonesia is a subsidiary of Thiess.
Thiess originally commenced operations in Indonesia in 1972 when it acquired a 50% in Petrosea.[1] After Thiess was taken over by CSR in 1980, the overseas operations including Indonesia operations were sold to Leighton Contractors.[2][3]
Thiess re-entered the Indonesian market when Thiess Contractors Indonesia was established in 1988 and, working in a joint venture with PT Mintekindo Utama Into, started undertaking mining activities.[4] Its first major mining contract was awarded in March 1989 by BHP at Senakin Mine in East Kalimantan.[5]
