The Australian mining sector is slow to adopt digital technology. WorleyParsons CEO Andrew Wood said that better use of data in design and construction can significantly reduce the cost and time of new projects. He said that project times could be cut by 20 per cent. The cost of design could be reduced by up to 70 per cent by re-using data from other projects. Total capital costs could be reduced by up to five per cent
