Petrojam Limited Purchased the ESSO Dock in October 2006, with the intention to use it to supplement the refinery dock.
-
Reasons are as follows:
-
- The Refinery Dock is experiencing high level of occupancy/usage, >80%.This does not provide enough time for maintenance works on the refinery main dock.
- Due to high occupancy, high demurrage costs are being incurred which are paid for in foreign exchange.
- Risk of business interruption if the main dock experiences significant damage.
-
The scope is as follows:
-
- Perform civil rehabilitation of the structure of the docking facility
- Route piping to the facility
- Install equipment such as crane and lighting
-
Benefits/Justification:
-
- Reduced demurrage due to waiting ships.
- Decrease dock occupancy of the main dock (current occupancy >80%, this is too high).
- More windows being available to perform maintenance works at the dock.
- Reduction of risk of business interruption in the event of significant dock damage.
-
Status:
-
- Currently executing civil repairs
- Piping installation and materials are currently being tendered. Piping to be installed in Two Phases (Phase 1 and 2)
- Electrical work in design phase
