Punta Pereira port terminal

The project included the detailed engineering for a multipurpose terminal, including a barge wharf for unloading wood logs, a waiting berth to receive the unloaded barges and an ocean wharf to unload chemicals and load cellulose. It also included the design of a 1.30km breakwater.

The terminal will handle, annually:

• 2.8 million tons of wood logs in the barge wharf.
• 0.2 million tons of chemicals in the ocean wharf.
• 1.3 million tons of cellulose in the ocean wharf.

The barge and ocean wharf were design and constructed with precast concrete blocks that constitute a gravitational wall. The waiting berth was design with monopile dolphins.

PRDW executed the following studies:

• 2D Breakwater physical model.
• Coastal natural conditions study.
• Wave climate and extreme waves study.
• Moored ship dynamics modelling.
• Mooring system for barges.

Also coordinated and supervised the following services:

• Electricity and lighting.
• Control and instrumentation.
• Paving design.
• Rainwater system.
• Potable water and sewer system.
• Firefighting system
• HVAC system in offices and electrical rooms.
