The Port Hedland Green Steel Project (Project) is a greenfields large-scale downstream iron ore processing facility proposed at the Boodarie Strategic Industrial Area near Port Hedland.  The Project is a joint venture between POSCO (Korea), Marubeni Corporation (Japan) and China Steel Corporation (Taiwan) and aims to produce green iron in Australia for use in green steel production overseas, where hydrogen eventually replaces coal and natural gas throughout the production process. 

Preston Consulting has been engaged by the joint venture parties for a number of workstreams including Native Title, environmental, planning and heritage approvals for the processing plant and worker accommodation facilities, access to port facilities, Government Relations at Federal, State and local level, greenhouse gas emissions management and policy advice.  Preston Consulting also provides strategic advice on a number of matters including hydrogen, water and power supply.  With the majority of joint venture staff based in North Asia, Preston Consulting provides ongoing, key in-country support for this globally significant project.
