Track closely; near-decision
- Why
- The category-defining risk — does a subsea RO plant actually run at industrial scale — is now substantially retired ('first water' at full capacity, Jun 2026). What remains unretired is the gap between this single ~1,000 m3/day unit and the 50,000 m3/day scaling claim, plus the still-conditional energy figure and absent independent post-launch economics.
- Next
- Pull any independent post-'first-water' operating data (measured energy-per-m3, sustained capacity, brine-monitoring) and confirmation that the 30-50% saving is realised in the field rather than DNV-conditional, before treating the efficiency claim as fielded.
