Approval of Ammonium Nitrate Expansion Project
The Wesfarmers Limited Board has provided final approval to proceed with the expansion of CSBP’s ammonium nitrate production facility at the company’s Kwinana industrial complex, 40 kilometres south of Perth.
Valued at the previously advised total of $550 million (in nominal terms and excluding capitalised interest), the project involves the construction of an additional nitric acid plant and ammonium nitrate plant, together with an upgrade of the existing prilling plant and other infrastructure work at the company’s Kwinana site, and will deliver an additional 260,000 tonnes per annum (tpa) of ammonium nitrate production capacity.
