That $8Bn Tender Pipeline!, page-59

Hi to you too Simon ...
As you could probably tell from the lack of reply I had not noticed any updates on the FAL project (although there is plenty going on out there around the airport) and I guess no one else has either ?

That infrastructure boom still has me a bit perplexed given the strew of failed companies that have dived into it although, according to @pbawley, things may be looking up ? (See his post of 25/09/19 on annual report thread ;40562071)


... But I have just twigged to another possibility for the ‘$8 Billion Tender Pipeline’ hope chest;

Wesfarmers revs up for lithium plant after Tesla visit - Financial Review
3 Oct 2019 · The Perth-based conglomerate said on Thursday that it was preparing for major decisions around building a lithium hydroxide plant at Kwinana in Western Australia in partnership with global lithium giant Sociedad Quimica y Minera de Chile (SQM)....​

NRW might have contracts for this project out of the hope chest and ‘in the bag’ if 2017 RCR work on Tianqi’s Kwinana lithium hydroxide plant went well (and if that work was done by the division of RCR that NRW acquired early this year )?

See this Google link (however it no longer works) relating to Tianqi’s head contractor - MSP Engineering awarding work for Tianqi’s Kwinana processing plant to RCR;

Tianqi Lithium Hydroxide Processing Plant - Major Contract Awarded to RCR Engineering - Page 35 - MSP Engineering
MSP Engineering Pty Ltd (MSPE) is pleased to announce that the installation contract associated with ... RCR is expected to commence on site in the third quarter of 2017 and be complete in the first quarter of 2018.​

The RCR 2017 Annual Report also mentions the contract as a major contract
“MSP Kwinana Lithium Refinery expansion - Installation of rotating equipment package including the new kilns.”
