CLOUGH MURRAY & ROBERTS MARINE AWARDED LANDMARK PROJECT
Clough Murray & Roberts Marine (CMR Marine) was recently
awarded a contract by Sunrise Energy to construct marine facilities
and a pipeline for the Saldanha Bay LPG Import Terminal at
Saldanha Bay.
The terminal at Saldanha Bay is a new facility designed to import
liquid petroleum gas (LPG) for distribution throughout South Africa.
The contract includes fabrication, installation and commissioning
of a five kilometre, 12 inch diameter pipeline. The marine facilities
include the construction of mooring facilities and a subsea manifold
which allows vessels to tie up and offload LPG via a three kilometre
subsea pipeline. The overland pipeline includes a shore crossing
and a two kilometre pipeline to connect with the Sunrise onshore
plant infrastructure.
This contract award marks an important first win for the CMR
Marine business and is a continuation of Clough’s international
expansion strategy.

ABOUT THE SALDANHA BAY LPG PROJECT
The Saldanha LPG Import and Storage Terminal Project is a greenfield project located at Saldanha Bay, 130 kilometres north of Cape Town. The development of Saldanha Bay is critical to meeting significant energy shortages in South Africa. The facility will feed the country’s existing and planned gas-to-power projects. The terminal will import and store LPG which will be offloaded from tankers using a multi-bouy mooring system.
