2025-03-11 HUATAI

Taking the construction of a small palm oil mill with a daily output of 10 tons in Papua New Guinea as an example, its construction and operation costs are roughly as follows:

Construction cost

Land cost: In Papua New Guinea, the cost of purchasing or leasing land varies from region to region. If it is near a palm plantation area, the annual rent for leasing land may be 1,000-2,000 kina (about RMB 1,800-3,600 yuan) per hectare. If a small palm oil mill is built, assuming that 5 hectares of land are required, the one-time rent for 5 years will cost about 25,000-50,000 kina (about RMB 45,000-90,000).

Plant construction: To build a simple plant that meets basic production needs, including a production workshop, raw material warehouse, finished product warehouse, etc., the construction cost per square meter may be 500-800 kina (about RMB 900-1440). If the total area of the plant is 1,000 square meters, the cost is about 500,000-800,000 kina (about RMB 900,000-1.44 million).

Equipment procurement: Purchase palm oil processing equipment with a daily output of 10 tons, such as screening equipment, pressing equipment, refining equipment, fractionation equipment, etc. Depending on the brand, quality and origin of the equipment, the cost of a full set of equipment may be around US$300,000-500,000.

Infrastructure support: including water and electricity access, road leveling and other infrastructure construction, the cost may be between 100,000 and 200,000 kina (about 180,000 to 360,000 yuan).

Other costs: such as feasibility studies and design fees in the early stages of the project, and supervision fees during the construction process, etc., are expected to be between 50,000 and 100,000 kina (about 90,000 to 180,000 yuan).

Operating costs

Raw material procurement: Assuming the purchase price of palm fruit is 200 kina per ton (about RMB 360), and the daily production of 10 tons of palm oil is 20%, 50 tons of palm fruit need to be purchased every day, and the raw material cost is 10,000 kina (about RMB 18,000), and the raw material cost is about 300,000 kina (about RMB 540,000) per month (calculated as 30 days).

Staff wages: The average monthly wage of local workers may be 1,500-2,000 kina (about RMB 2,700-3,600), and the salary of management personnel may be 3,000-5,000 kina (about RMB 5,400-9,000). If the factory is equipped with 10 workers and 2 management personnel, the monthly wage expenditure is about 21,000-30,000 kina (about RMB 38,000-54,000).

Water, electricity and fuel: The monthly consumption of water, electricity and fuel in the production process is estimated to be 5,000-10,000 kina (about RMB 9,000-18,000).

Equipment maintenance: The monthly equipment maintenance cost is about 5,000-10,000 kina (about RMB 9,000-18,000).

Transportation and sales costs: The transportation costs of transporting products to ports or sales points, as well as marketing and sales channel construction costs, are estimated to be 10,000-20,000 kina (about RMB 18,000-36,000) per month.

In summary, the construction cost of building a palm oil mill with a daily output of 10 tons in Papua New Guinea may be around 5 million to 8 million kina (about RMB 9 million to 14.4 million), and the operating cost may be around 350,000-450,000 kina (about RMB 630,000-810,000) per month. Actual costs may vary due to local conditions, market fluctuations and other factors.
