The plant requires a total investment capital of US $694 million, 90% of which are preferential loans from China.

The 3 year-and-a-half EPC contract between Vinachem and Huanqiu values US $493 million. Slated for completion in 2010, the plant is expected to turn out 560,000 tons of nitrogenous fertilizer from coal dust supplied by the Việt Nam National Coal-Mineral Industries Group.
