The works, which spanned over an eight-year period and cost around $100 million included:

• upgrades to ammonia storage vessels
• upgrades to ammonia detection and isolation systems
• the installation of three flaring systems designed to prevent ammonia emissions and their associated odour
• the replacement of the ammonia pipeline between the site and Kooragang Berth 2 to ensure the ongoing safe
• operation of the site’s ammonia import and export process
• the installation of a new pump and associated piping at the 12,000-tonne ammonia storage tank.
