“ The initial work of installing foundational piles into the harbor waters has begun, with project completion expected by late 2027 ,” said Mammoet.
Commenting the news, Pierre Mille , Sales Manager for Mammoet, said: “ The heavy lift and transport development strategy we have shared with DHO will allow us to provide an efficient solution and offer the best possible execution strategy for this project.”
Upon completion, the upgraded facility is expected to have a significantly long life span.
