SkillPro Services Pty Ltd Information

SkillPro Services is a trusted provider of safety solutions to the mining sector, specialising in gas detection calibration and coal dust explosion barrier research. Through the Emerald Services Group gas calibration laboratory, we deliver statutory calibration support via onsite NATA-accredited visits, along with weekly and monthly independent checks. We also supply specialist calibration gases to help clients strengthen and streamline their internal safety procedures. Our team offers end-to-end expertise across all facets of gas detection—including calibrations, equipment parts, technical advice, and staff training—ensuring mining operations meet the highest safety and compliance standards. SkillPro played a pioneering role in introducing the passive coal dust explosion barrier to Australian coal mines. The SkillPro/Becker barrier bag has a proven and traceable history, supported by extensive full-scale testing at the Tremonia Mine and medium-scale testing at the Lake Lindsay Mine. Data from these programs was instrumental in validating the use of the South African CSIR Kloppersbos tunnel as an accurate testing environment following the closure of traditional test mines. All components of our coal dust explosion bag barrier system are proudly manufactured in Australia and rigorously tested at the CSIR Kloppersbos facility, ensuring reliability, consistency, and compliance with international best practice. SkillPro Services continues to support the mining industry with innovative, evidence-based safety solutions that protect workers, assets, and operations.
