Port Infrastructure Development
From conception to operation, KASI offers a range of services to help clients assess, develop, optimize and maintain port facilities. Our specialist skills cover the full-range of key drivers on port development, this include the critical areas of economic, financial, marine, risk and environmental assessment.
KASI is closely involved in the field of port development, expansion and operational efficiency. We have identified where efficiency improvements and the upgrading of equipment is more appropriate than new facilities. We have provided outlined and detailed designs for Vessel Traffic Management Systems (VTMS), equipment upgrades, AtoNs, AIS, as well as IT systems and new infrastructure, managed the implementation of developments under a variety of contract forms, and assisted the procurement of equipment.
The efficient operation of a jetty or quay requires the integration of ship movement, berthing and cargo / passenger handling operations within an aggressive environment. With extensive experience in all aspects of maritime structures, from initial assessments through to demolition or developing alternative uses, KASI offers a fully integrated approach. The firm can deal with a variety of issues from planning and consents to structural inspections and feasibility studies to design and construction. KASI's services also include design for dredging and reclamation as well as structures for canals and inland waterways.
High-quality designs at the water edge can add substantial value to waterfront developments. KASI works closely with master planners, architects and landscape architects to integrate the engineering constraints and opportunities into designs in order to realise the developer's aspirations while reducing costs and project risks.
