Allocation mix

Why these projects

The selected portfolio uses $62M of the $65M capital envelope. A toll reservation, downstream expansion, and a brownfield train add 410 tonnes/quarter.

Situation

The commercial plan needs more capacity, but capital and execution bandwidth cannot support every partner, expansion, and owned-build proposal.

Model logic

Compares named capacity investments and their enablers against the same capital and capacity objective.

Selected and deferred
01

The selected portfolio uses $62M of the $65M capital envelope.

02

A toll reservation, downstream expansion, and a brownfield train add 410 tonnes/quarter.

03

The modular facility is deferred because it exceeds the current envelope once its utilities enabler is included.

Takeaway

Fund the toll bridge, downstream debottleneck, brownfield train, and required utilities upgrade; defer the modular facility.
