Berths
Two separate, dedicated berths are planned for the terminal – one to load petroleum and the other to offload condensate. Each berth will have similar features:
- A loading and unloading platform that supports the cargo transfer arms to transfer product from ship to shore
- Breasting dolphins, which are mooring structures used to absorb the impact of the berthing vessel and help support the vessel’s mooring lines
- Mooring dolphins to which the ship’s mooring ropes are secured
- A gangway tower for crew to access the dock
- Walkway bridges between the platforms and breasting dolphins
- Cathodic protection to prevent corrosion of the steel structures
- First response equipment
