Jurong Island construction work continues


Construction work at fuel oil storage terminal extended until July 2009.

The Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) has announced that construction work is scheduled to continue in 2009 on a new jetty at the Oiltanking marine terminal, Jurong Island.

Construction of the new jetty, which began in July 2008, has now been extended until July 8th 2009. Work to be carried out during the seven month will include piling, concrete works, casting of dolphins, installation of walkways and the construction of a superstructure.

Piling and concrete works will be carried out by crane and flat top barges. Marine surveys will be carried out within the site boundary.

The Oiltanking marine terminal is located amid the expanding refining and petrochemical complexes on Jurong Island. It has a total storage capacity of 1,165,680 cubic metres (cbm) and stores a range of products including heavy fuel oil, gasoil, feedstocks, bio diesel, gasoline, naptha, jet fuel, palm oil, methanol and glycerine.

The terminal includes five deepwater berths and six barge berths and is accessibile by water and by land transport via the JI Highway to the mainland.
