Development of an Icelandic-type berm breakwater for the Oakajee port project in Western Australia

摘要

The state government of Western Australia has nominated Oakajee Port and Rail (OPR) as the successful proponent for the development of a new deep water port for the export of bulk iron ore at Oakajee, Western Australia. The project will comprise: an initial phase of up to two cape class bulk ore loading berths; breakwater; dredged approach channel and manoeuvring area; and possible expansion, including a further cape class bulk berth and seven Panamax class bulk / container berths. A lee breakwater might be added at a later stage.
