Firstly yesterday (Tuesday 23 November 2021), Portalis provided a comprehensive update of the | ||
personal | ||
work undertaken to progress the early port development. |
Portalis represents the three joint developers- Iron Road, Eyre Peninsula Co-operative Bulk Handling (EPCBH) and Macquarie Capital.
The key points have been extracted and are listed here, these are-
• There has been extensive consultation with EP grain growers and, through EPCBH, Portalis has
worked with the growers on various models for the supply of grain to Cape Hardy. | |
• | This work has resulted in valuable feedback, confirming strong support for a multi-commodity, |
multi-user port at Cape Hardy that will drive diverse regional growth opportunities for the Eyre | |
Peninsula. Engagement has also confirmed that growers, on balance, do not support the concept | |
of long-term supply agreements within the commercial model that was proposed at the various | |
grower meetings. | |
• | As a result, there is further work to be done on a grain supply model for the port that will support |
For | |
the commercial needs of all parties, including that of investors and debt financiers. | |
• EPCBH and Portalis have been approached by a grain trading business of international standing | |
regarding grain handling and export opportunities at Cape Hardy. Portalis has confirmed it is | |
working with that business on potential operating models that feature a reduced capital | |
expenditure for an early stage port with consideration of strategic grower-owned upcountry grain | |
storage. | |
• | Importantly Portalis supports Iron Road's requirement that any alternate export facility, smaller |
than that originally proposed, needs to be scalable to support the future development and timing of | |
the CEIP. | |
• | Increased levels of engagement from potential industry partners for the CEIP is targeted to |
accelerate the larger-scale port. |
