Metso secures a major 5-year analyser services agreement for copper processing operations in South America

The 5-year agreement represents an important milestone in the development of Metso's analyser services offering and demonstrates growing interest in outcome-based business models within the mining industry.

The agreement is valued at over €40 million over five years and the first part of the order is booked to the Minerals segment's third-quarter orders received. Further order bookings will be made in accordance with a predefined schedule as milestones under the agreement are reached.

"The agreement further strengthens Metso's position in analyser solutions and services for mining customers in South America. Delivery will be supported by Metso's regional analyser and service experts together with global technology teams,” says Manuel Sanchez, Manager, Business Field Service, Market Area South America.

The agreement combines on-stream analyser technology, engineering expertise, and long-term operational support under a single commercial framework. The scope includes analyser modernisation, new analyser and sampling systems, technical services, spare parts, digital support, and operation and maintenance services over a five-year period. Elemental and particle size on-stream analysers have a significant impact on process performance as they enable process control and optimisation with accurate, reliable, and fast measurements from process streams.

"Mining customers are increasingly looking for partners that can combine strong equipment technology, services, and operational expertise to deliver measurable performance improvements. This agreement demonstrates the value of Metso's end-to-end capability by bringing together analyser technology, engineering, digital capabilities, and services under a single framework that supports our customer's operational objectives," says Miika Tirkkonen, Senior Vice President, Beneficiation & Dewatering Services.

Analyser as a service enables customers to purchase defined processing outcomes through performance-based agreements that combine equipment, services, and digital capabilities into integrated solutions. Through this approach, Metso helps customers improve operational performance while creating long-term value throughout the lifecycle of their operations.
