Marine Terminal Engineering

Marine terminal engineering is a fundamental aspect of the maritime industry, and NETSCo’s team of experts have the experience required to provide tailored solutions for any operation. Designing and maintaining a marine terminal requires extensive knowledge of the various aspects of marine engineering, including dock design, mooring arrangements, and structural engineering.

Our approach to marine terminal design involves a thorough assessment of the client’s needs and the types of vessels and cargo that will be using the facility. By incorporating these factors into our designs, we are able to develop structures that are not only efficient but also safe and reliable. We undertake structural evaluations and condition assessments of cargo terminals and port facilities, providing recommendations for repair or upgrades where necessary. Through our proven approach to marine terminal design and engineering, we have been able to assist numerous clients in achieving their operational goals while ensuring the safety and efficiency of their marine terminal.

Dock Repair

In a recent project, NETSCo’s engineering team quickly responded to a client’s need for urgent repairs to a dock at a cement terminal. The existing dock was improperly built and so the shore had been stabilized with concrete bags and concrete blocks. Unfortunately, the poorly constructed wall crumpled away, thus compromising the working surface of the dock.  NETSCo contracted a geotechnical engineer to investigate soil properties and then designed the replacement retaining wall, consisting of a steel sheet piles and tie-backs. We also led the bidding process and assisted with selecting a contractor for the installation, finishing the job in a timely manner and to the satisfaction of our client.
