Bauer Involved In The Expansion Of Egypt's Largest Port

Egypt has been involved in global trade since ancient times due to its special geographical location at the intersection of three continents and its 2,000 km long coastline on the Mediterranean and the Red Sea. The Egyptian government is now planning to expand six main ports in order to meet the growing demand in maritime trade - and BAUER Spezialtiefbau GmbH has a stake in four of them with its local subsidiary BAUER EGYPT SAE.

The city of Alexandria has over 5 million inhabitants and is the second largest city in Egypt after Cairo. The port of Alexandria is one of the oldest ports in the world and the main port in the country. Around 60% of the country's exports and imports are processed here. It is located on the western edge of the Nile Delta between the Mediterranean Sea and Lake Mariut and consists of two ports separated by a T-shaped peninsula. The flat east port is not navigable for large ships, the west port, however, is used for merchant shipping. A plan is now to expand the port of Alexandria to handle more cargo. The new "Multi-Purpose Terminal 55/62", which is to be built as an extension of the port of Alexandria, takes up an area of ​​approx. 56 hectares, which is first to be extracted and then made usable.

BAUER EGYPT SAE was commissioned by the main clients EDECS and GIECO with the foundation work for the semi-rectangular, 225,897 m 3 quay wall, consisting of a front diaphragm wall, two rows of central piles and a rear row of barrettes. The front diaphragm wall will be 1.2 m thick over a length of 1,500 m and a thickness of 1.025 m over a length of 1,100 m. The 1,326 middle piles and 660 rear barrettes, like the front diaphragm wall, will be 39 m deep.

In addition to four trench wall cutters, two Bauer BG 28 rotary drilling rigs are used.The vertical elements are to be produced in parallel with the help of two huge mixing systems, which are initially located on the north and south sides of the wall and each cover a radius of 200 m. In the course of the work, the mixing plants will be moved along the quay wall. Bauer Egypt began work on September 28, 2020 and is expected to last ten months.
