Hybrid vessel Charging System Project at Caven Point Marine Terminal

The work that will be performed under this contract will includes demolition of existing timber fender piles, timber rub rail, and removal of existing pavement and trench drain for the installation of seven (7) new mooring dolphins. Each mooring dolphin is comprised of six tubular steel casing pipe piles (micropiles) connected to a reinforced concrete cap. Each mooring dolphin micropile is socketed to rock using a threaded bar anchoring system.

Each mooring dolphin is furnished with a new steel bollard for mooring and tubular steel rub rail connected to the existing concrete cap beam using post installed epoxy anchors. The new fender system is comprised of foam-filled camels braced against vertical steel pipe piles that are connected to molded rubber cone fenders with a fabricated steel guide pile sleeve assembly. Work also includes installation of new utility service and powering of project equipment.

This work will consist of the construction and installation of a new shore power station capable of delivering 480VAC 3 phase power at 550 amps to the DCV DRIFTMASTER II to recharge the vessels batteries.
