The subsequent optional maintenance work of the access channel and basins is expected to be conducted with medium sized hoppers. Boskalis executed also the initial capital dredging and reclamation works for the new LNG port on behalf of Angola LNG Ltd in 2008. The Boskalis strategy is designed to benefit from the key macro-economic drivers that are fueling global demand in our selected markets: global trade, increasing energy consumption, expanding population pressures and the challenges of changing climate conditions. This port expansion project is driven by a need to cater for larger vessels and future trade volumes. This LNG port related project reinforces the requirement for infrastructure to accommodate the strong demand for energy resources.
