  4. AUSTRALIAN MARINE COMPLEX - HISTORY In 1998 the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Industry published a follow up report to the 1989 report entitled; ‘A Sea of Indifference’ The WA State Government selected the AMC as its main project for funding under the federation Funding.

FUNDING HISTORY • Commonwealth Funding$80 million • WA State Government Funding for the CUF $100 million • Funding for the Technology Precinct $20 million • Originally focussed on the Oil and Gas industry sector but still common use: • CUF infrastructure upgrade $170 million • Service and Supply Wharf $35 million

  6. THE AMC IS NOT A PORT • The Government’s vision for the AMC is: “A world class centre of excellence for manufacturing, fabrication, assembly, technology, repair and maintenance servicing activities in the marine, defence and resource industries.” • It does not compete with Fremantle Port’s business. • Companies are advised that loads from outside the AMC-CUF able to be transported by road to the Fremantle Port for shipping must do so.

  7. THE GORGON PROJECT • The WA Government built the service and supply wharf to accommodate the amount of vessel traffic being generated by the Gorgon Project. • Chevron gave a capital injection for priority access. • The wharf will return to common use after the completion of the Gorgon project.

THE AMC NORTHERN HARBOUR Approved industrial use is defined as “…the use of the land principally for construction and repair of commercial vessels and for other ancillary manufacturing, engineering, repairing, refurbishment and other purposes as are compatible with servicing the maritime industry”. .
