History
In 2001, the Government of Queensland, represented by the government owned holding company Ports Corporation of Queensland (now known as North Queensland Bulk Ports and DBCT Holdings) awarded long-term leases of the Dalrymple Bay Coal Terminal (DBCT), which was established in 1983 by the Queensland Government. The leases, which are for a 50-year term with a 49-year renewal option, were awarded to a consortium collectively known as Coal Logistics-North Queensland (CL-NQ). After an IPO in June 2002, the group became Prime Infrastructure. Following a further name change in 2005, the group became known as Babcock & Brown Infrastructure, with a satellite company known as DBCT Management responsible for managing the DBCT asset to the terms and conditions of the Port Services Agreement.[3]
In 2009, BBI changed back to Prime Infrastructure after which Brookfield Asset Management of Canada purchased 39% of the Prime Infrastructure Group and 49.9% of the DBCT interests. In November 2010, Brookfield Asset Management received approval to acquire the remaining stake of Prime Infrastructure and 100 percent ownership of DBCT.[3]
