Together, the two companies will focus on accelerating the development of Standard Lithium’s large-scale, sustainable lithium West Arkansas and East Texas projects, which are located in the Smackover Formation. According to the announcement, the partnership involves Equinor contributing up to $160 million; Standard Lithium and Equinor will each own 55% and 45% of the projects respectively, with Standard Lithium retaining operatorship. “We are delighted to have concluded this transaction and begun an exciting new partnership with Equinor,” said Standard Lithium president, director and COO Dr. Andy Robinson in the press release. “We believe this partnership with a global energy major validates the quality of our team, our DLE flowsheet and experience, and our world-class lithium-brine resources in Arkansas and Texas. We’re at a crucial stage in our company’s growth, and this partnership with Equinor will be fundamental to the continued derisking and execution of these important projects. One thing that we have observed in the lithium world over the past decade is that strong, mutually aligned partnerships are the key to successful project execution and operation, and we believe we have aligned with the right partner to take SLI and the lithium industry in Arkansas and Texas to the next level. ”
