Construction of the Port of Durban’s fourth floating dock is under way.
According to news reports, the contract was awarded to Ukraine-based engineering company, Dormac. Once completed, the dock will accommodate vessels up to 155m in length.
A Dormac spokesperson told FTW Online that the floating dock would add much-needed service capacity to the port while the dry dock undergoes refurbishment.
The dock is currently being built in Ukraine and is expected to be delivered in June next year.
