Fertilizer Production in Western Australia Sees Major Boost, an Industrial Info Market Brief

There is substantial interest in the fertilizer production industry in Western Australia. Two companies have started, or shown interest in, ammonia-urea production that would significantly reduce the reliance on fertilizer imports.

Perdaman Industries has just awarded an engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract to Saipem-Clough, to construct their $4.3 billion fertilizer plant in Karratha.

Meanwhile, Strike Energy Ltd is moving forward with a $2.3 billion ammonia-urea complex, called Project Haber, in Narngulu.
