Supporting infrastructure includes gas treatment facilities; gas fired power and steam generation, heat recovery steam generation and emergency diesel generator; urea storage and loading facilities; utilities, including potable water storage and treatment; wastewater treatment; cooling water systems; 10 MW electrolyser to produce green hydrogen and an accommodation camp.
The proposed development envelope is approximately 478 hectares (ha), which includes 323.6 ha of disturbance for the proposed urea plant, including the clearing of up to 1 ha of native vegetation.
The Proposal has associated GHG Emissions of 761 thousand tonnes per annum CO2 equivalent (ktpa CO2-e) emissions (Scope 1) released to the atmosphere as a direct result of the Proposal.
