Westshore Quadrant Shiploader Recovery
Location: Delta, BC Contract Value:
KWH was the only contractor called by our client, Westshore, on a three-hour notice, to salvage two shiploaders in Delta, BC that were seriously damaged during a severe storm. KWH used water and land based cranes together with diver support to salvage the loaders in large sections. All crews worked seven days a week on an aggressive schedule. Our team of engineers and field experts swiftly developed plans and weight take-offs for a safe and expeditious salvage operation. Due to unstable orientations and loadings on the semi-collapsed structure, extra care and planning was required to ensure every piece was rigged and cut free to prevent any additional collapse or damage.
