Submerged Caisson Installation - Temporary Works Design (TWD)

For the construction of the new port of Nador West in Morocco a total of 253 caissons, weighing up to 9.000t, were installed to form 2 breakwaters, petroleum stations and a container terminal. TWD advised the consortium STFA-SGTM-JDN about best practices for the construction of the caissons, their load-out on the semi-submersible vessel, their safe transport and their controlled submerged installations.
