Carrington Precinct, Port of NewcastleMarine and Civil Maintenance

MCM continues its operation in the Newcastle region with a major rehabilitation of the Port of Newcastle, Carrington Precinct.

Newcastle’s thriving economic activity can be attributed to their bustling harbour and trade throughput diversity. In November 2017, Port of Newcastle awarded MCM the contract to rehabilitate Channel Berth and Dyke Berth located in the Carrington Precinct to further improve their infrastructure and capacity for future growth. Channel Berth is mainly used for cruise vessels and activity while Dyke Berth’s predominant operation is for discharging petroleum products.

Both berths consist of concrete dolphins suffering chloride-induced corrosion. Scope includes concrete repair to the soffit, crack repair to the soffit and dolphin decks, and installation of galvanic anodes. The project delivery team has been challenged by heavy rains, challenging tidal conditions and operational activities without any incurring environmental or safety incidents.
