Paradip International Cargo Terminal (PICT) is a multipurpose berth located at Paradip Port on India’s eastern coast, designed to handle clean cargo. The berth has a depth of 17.1 meters and a length of 450 meters, allowing it to accommodate cape-sized vessels up to 125,000 DWT. It will handle a range of cargoes including containerized goods, iron and steel products, fertilizer, food grains, and sugar.

Dextra supplied approximately 370 tons of أنظمة قضبان الربط البحرية, sizes M105 and M76, Grade 500, along with accessories like couplers, turnbuckles, swivel plates, and swivel nuts. These tie bar systems were used to secure the concrete diaphragm walls at both ends of the berth, ensuring the structural integrity of the terminal.

.

With the new berth becoming operational in 2018, Paradip Port now boasts a total of 18 berths, including 13 cargo berths, 2 oil tanker berths, and 3 crude oil tanker berths with a single-point mooring system for handling crude oil tankers. This expansion significantly enhances the port’s capacity to handle a wide range of cargo and oil shipments.

Mugharraq Port, located 240 kilometers from Abu Dhabi, UAE, is undergoing a significant marine development project. The expansion includes extending the quay wall to 480 meters, deepening the facility to 8 meters, and adding six Ro-Ro ramps and additional berths to facilitate heavy lift operations.

Dextra supplied 407 tons of marine tie bars (size M103, grade 700) to connect the sea walls to the anchor walls.

This project aims to enhance the port’s infrastructure and service capabilities, better supporting offshore and mega projects in the oil and gas industry.

Altamira Port, located on the Gulf of Mexico in Tamaulipas, Mexico, is a key hub connecting with 125 ports worldwide. It handles a wide range of cargo, including liquid and dry bulk, petrochemicals, LNG, containers, and general cargo, serving an important industrial and economic region.

As part of its expansion to strengthen Mexico’s position as a global logistics platform, Dextra supplied 174 tons of grade 700 marine tie bars to anchor the sea walls during the project.

بالإضافة إلى ذلك، سونيتيك, a sonic tube solution, was used for CSL (crosshole sonic logging) testing of foundation piles in the quay. This technique ensures the structural integrity and homogeneity of concrete in the piles by measuring the speed of ultrasonic pulses.

The Port of Sète, located on the Mediterranean Sea, is the largest fishing port in southern France and also serves numerous ferry routes to North Africa, including Tangiers. As part of its efforts to increase container capacity, the port is adding a new quay (Quay H), 15 meters deep, to improve both handling and storage of containers.

To support contractor Soletanche-Bachy in the construction of this new quay, Dextra engineered and supplied 74 large شريط التعادل البحرية assemblies, the largest in our range at M160. These large-diameter assemblies reduce the number of sets required by increasing spacing between each rod.

The tie rods were anchored into the D-Wall using ball cages, which allow a 10° rotational angle in all directions. After excavation, the ball cages were opened to enable reconnection of the threaded ends of the rods.
