Argentina

Built to keep pace with the country’s growing energy requirements, the Guillermo Brown thermoelectric power plant needed facilities to receive liquid fuel supplies.

These are located at the Puerto Galván site and include a 17 km pipeline and an unloading quay. In November 2013, Siemens awarded the design-build contract for the jetty and associated berthing and mooring facilities to the SBA – JML UTE joint venture. The work consisted in building an ofshore trestle with a length of about 800 metres and a quay comprising four berths, an operating platform and four moorings.
