PROJECT FOCUS The existing fuel berth will be upgraded by early 2023. New fuel dock for superyacht marina Adriatic Marinas, owner of the Porto Montenegro superyacht marina in Tivat, Montenegro has appointed specialist consultancy firm Marina Projects Ltd (MPL) to manage the redevelopment of the marina’s fuel dock. The project is part of an ongoing wider masterplan redevelopment of the Tivat Arsenal. The existing fuel berth, which supplies in the order of 20 million litres/4.4 million gallons of fuel each year, will be upgraded. The old fuel tanks will be decommissioned and a new floating fuel storage facility installed. In addition, a new harbourmaster building will be constructed. Marina Projects has been appointed as overall project manager for the scheme, with responsibility for coordination of the project team through design, construction and the testing and commissioning of the finished facility. The scope of work includes: design and build of a new floating fuel storage facility of around 2.6 million litres/571,900 gallons (barge); maritime civil engineering of the berthing arrangements and mechanical and electrical upgrades to the existing fuel jetty; design and construction of the new harbourmaster building and decommissioning of the existing landbased fuel storage facility. With design work commencing immediately, the current programme will see building works completed by the end of 2022 and the new fuel facility ready for early 2023. Svetozar Radovic of Adriatic Marinas commented: “The appointment of Marina Projects was our preferred solution to help us deliver this critical piece of new infrastructure to support the superyacht marina facility at Porto Montenegro. We have worked successfully with Marina Projects for over ten years and welcome their professional skill and industry knowledge to support Adriatic Marinas.” Marina Projects has been involved with Porto Montenegro – formerly a disused military site – from concept design stage in 2006. In the intervening years, the company assisted Adriatic Marinas in the delivery of the marina with associated shoreside facilities. Mike Ward, managing director of Marina Projects, described the contract as “an exciting opportunity for us to continue our successful working relationship with Adriatic Marinas, extending our long association with Porto Montenegro and further developing this world class superyacht facility.” “It is a testament to MPL’s skills and professionalism that Adriatic Marinas saw us as the ideal partner to assist them in successfully delivering this critical infrastructure project,” he added. The project has a capital value of approximately €4.5 million and the new facility is planned to open for the new season in March 2023. www.marinaworld.com – March/April 2022 37
