Coogee aims to streamline the delivery of product, storage, and distribution to local customers via increased capacity rail transportation through the application of either dedicated rail tank cars or larger “Maxi-Iso” liquid isotainers for the mining industry. This prompted the development of an intermodal facility for unloading of rail cars, bulk storage of product and loading of road tankers.
Lycopodium’s responsibilities for the prefeasibility study included the development of a preliminary intermodal facility layout, preliminary design work including P&IDs to support a capital cost estimate.
Lycopodium subsequently completed the detail design for the civil/concrete foundations of the rail unloading & tanker loading apron and the storage tank bund areas that allowed Coogee to undertake the first phase of construction works with their rail service provider. These detail design works were undertaken on a challenging footprint that also had to take into consideration the integration of a future Dangerous Goods storage facility within the same footprint.
Phase 1 construction works are currently underway with completion expected by December 2023.
