We do it big in the NT !

A couple of images of the first "PAM's" to be delivered to Gove as part of the $2 Billion expansion project up here.
You have to see these to believe it!

PAM's are "Pre Assembled Modules"
These ones were made in Thailand & shipped here by the vessel in the first photo.
These are Piperacks, with the pipes installed, ready to be put onto the footings & bolted together !
They are the first of a few hundred modules for the expansion of the Alumina refinery here in Gove.
