Lindley, a company specializing in floating solutions and maritime signaling, has recently collaborated with Vilamoura Marina in Portugal to provide and set up the floating infrastructures for the marina's new extension.
The project entailed the installation of three new floating quays designed to accommodate 68 berths for vessels ranging from 25 to 55 meters in length.
In addition, the project involved the design and production of 104 pontoons constructed using PFC (Continuous Floating Pontoon) technology, featuring prefabricated steel-reinforced concrete and a polystyrene core.
The entire project was executed under a contract awarded to the primary contractor ETERMAR.
Notable characteristics of the pontoons and quays include a minimum 650mm freeboard integrated throughout the new marina, necessitating the installation of more than 12,000m of electrical cables and pipes beneath the walkway decks.
The pontoons were also equipped with versatile pedestals, mooring bollards, emergency services, and various other accessories.
We are delighted to have taken part in and successfully completed this project within an exceptional timeframe.
Furthermore, the project incorporated multipurpose service points for all moorings, offering remote monitoring and management of water and electricity consumption, along with an individual system per pump-out station for sanitary water.
The pontoons were meticulously designed to include floor lighting, as well as bridges and gates seamlessly integrated into the marina's overall architectural scheme.
"We take pride in having contributed to and overcome this challenge swiftly, working in harmony with the other parties involved, to deliver a solution that aligns with the technical and service requirements of a top-tier marina like the new Vilamoura Marina," mentioned a Lindley spokesperson.
The installation activities were conducted concurrently with the construction works on the outer jetty and the basin, with logistics tailored to minimize disruptions during the peak tourist season.
