Good on him for at least trying to explain all the cock ups.
Reading this reinforces my own few that the fewer moving parts in these projects the better.
For example if you only have trench you have a trench maintenance program and that’s it. These guys haven’t kept on top of trench maintenance, bores have silted up, transfer pipes have scaled up (hopefully a one off).

As for the plant, are we being told commissioning actually requires a higher grade than production grade? Doesn’t sound like a clever or robust design to me but I’m no expert.

I unfortunately the sector is still quite a few months away from seeing a successful operation come together.
