PILE DRIVERS MORRIS-SHEA HAS COMPLETED FOUNDATIONS FOR LNG TANKS AT CALCASIEU PASS

摘要

Morris-Shea has completed construction of deep foundations for two LNG storage tanks at Venture Global’s Calcasieu Pass LNG facility in Cameron,Louisiana.The Birmingham,Alabama-based specialty deep foundations contractor installed 2,700 18ins DeWaal Drilled Displacement Piles to depths up to 113ft as deep foundation for the 200,000 cbm LNG containment tanks.Morris-Shea recommended the DeWaal Pile System as a preferred alternative to the original proposal specification for driven concrete piles.DeWaal Piles offered uncommon load strength for this high capacity project and minimised spoils and related disposal costs.The DeWaal Pile System is a drilled,full displacement,cast-in-place concrete pile installed by powerful,fixed mast rigs.
