Phase 1 of Tuas Terminal gets underway

摘要

The dredging international Asia Pacific (DIAP)-DAELIM Joint Venture will carry out the land reclamation and related works for the Tuas Terminal Phase 1 project. Works will include reclaiming 294 hectares of land, dredging the Tuas Basin and Temasek Fairway, as well as constructing the wharf. The Tuas Terminal development - a testament to Singapore's commitment to retain its lead as a global maritime nation and to invest in port infrastructure, has entered Phase 1 of its construction. In total, 222 caissons will form the permanent wharf structure. With each caisson standing 28 metres tall, the equivalent height of a 10-storey tower block, the caissons for the new terminal are one of the largest in the world.
