They had to get power, piping & monitoring equipment to the brine extraction well heads in order to get them operating.
Whatever pumping, pipelines were required to transport the brine from the field to the process plant - all operational.
Then inside the plant all the electrical cable trays, cabling, plc/computer controlled operating system cabinets, distribution boards, lighting & power, plant air & plant water lines cut, welded/joined & pressure tested, electrical equipment installed in place, instrumentation installed in place, all of it tested & commissioned, then get the discharge side, waste brine processing ponds, lines, valves etc ready to go.
Then set up the entire system & dry commission everything - making sure valves opened & were actually opening, starting & stopping motors/pumps, conveyors potentially, before bringing in any form of inert fluids for wet commissioning.
Then get everything going & introduce brine & see how it goes, test, tweak optimise. Then repeat. Then do it in Auto.
Then run it for 1,000 hours at production rates & prove all this to a heap of extremely qualified, well educated people.

And they've done it.

Congratulations are in order, IMO.

You are a legend mate. I am guessing that you have worked in the industry and appreciate the information you provide. The amount of work that Lake/Lilac have put into this pilot plant is phenomenal. 10,000+ hours of test work before the pilot plant in Kachi was even commissioned. These guys are the real deal and I cant wait for the next six months to unfold. Looking forward to seeing the details. Awesome news.
