PETKİM Jetty 3 Renewal Project

The 175 m long jetty, built in the 1970s, was demolished and replaced with a new, modern structure. To accommodate larger vessels, the jetty front was deepened, and the existing block jetty was transformed into a piled jetty, resulting in the construction of approximately 445 m of new jetty.

Key Project Activities:

Piling: A total of 473 steel pipe piles were driven into the ground, consisting of 208 piles of 914 mm diameter and 28 m length, and 265 piles of the same specifications, along with 57 piles of 1016 mm diameter and 32.5 m length.

Quick Release Hooks and Buoys: Installation of 11 quick-release hooks and 19 buoys sourced from Trelleborg.

Steel Pile Manufacturing and Installation: 473 steel piles were manufactured and installed.

Head Beam Construction: Concrete pouring for the head beams.

Site Filling: Conducting site fill operations.

Cathodic Protection: Implementing cathodic protection systems.

Installation of Quick Release Hooks: Including the installation of electronic control systems for the hooks.

Concrete Works: All site concrete was poured.

Dredging: Dredging of the seabed to a depth of -12 meters.

Dynamic Capacity Testing: Conducted dynamic capacity tests on the piles and filled them with sand.

Concrete Filling: Each steel pipe pile was filled with 308 m³ of C35 type reinforced concrete.

Additional Works: Included fabrication of the jetty's steel pipe piles, cathodic protection, and fore pile construction, along with the production of head beams, anchors, and precast weight blocks.

Reinforcement Supply: A total of 282 tons of construction rebar were supplied and laid.

Total Length of Supplied Pipes: 7,331 meters, with a total weight of the steel pipe piles being 1,272 tons and a wall thickness of 16 mm.
