Meanwhile planning permission has been obtained for the new London City Cruise Port at Enderby Wharf; river works are expected to begin towards the end of 2014, with a view to opening for operations in 2016.

London Titan A new mooring maintenance vessel, London Titan, being built by Manor Marine in Portland represents one of the biggest single investments by the PLA in more than two decades. The £6 million multipurpose vessel, due for delivery in summer 2014, will be used for much of the PLA’s work on the river, including laying buoys to mark navigation channels, placing moorings, hauling wreckage from the bottom of the river, removing old piles and anchors, loading/offloading machinery for salvage operations, and supporting dive operations. It will also be equipped with a plough dredge, so that it can carry out maintenance dredging in berths and elsewhere.

‘Green’ waterbourne transport solutions. The river Thames provides a vital artery for moving freight and avoiding gridlock on London’s road network. Aggregates, construction and tunnelling spoil, giant tunnelling machines, con- struction materials, petroleum products, containers, household refuse … all these, and more, are transported into and out of Keeping central London via the river Thames. The river has always acted as a vital artery for moving freight and now, as London witnesses some of Europe’s largest ever engineering schemes and a surge in major construction projects, the London alternatives don’t bear thinking about. In the past two years, the volume of intra-port freight has more than doubled from 2 million tonnes in 2011 to 5.3 million tonnes in 2013, a growth underpinned by projects such as Crossrail and Thames moving Water’s Lea Tunnel project. Imagine taking 5 million tonnes of cargo off the river. The result would be certain gridlock on the capital’s road network, with the added ingredient of vastly increased carbon emissions from the lorries that would be needed. Across the economy, companies are revising their supply chain strategies in an attempt to increase efficiencies and reduce their carbon footprint – and green, waterborne transport solutions are an

Another £30 million of investment is planned for 2014. “We have a neat and very functional terminal,” says Perry Glading. “We have extremely low turnaround times for trucks and we continue to emphasise our personal approach. We are very much about relationships with customers and building on the supply chain knowledge we have. It isn’t just about the container – it is about what’s in the box, and how we can add value to the supply chain. “We offer the technical ability but also flexibility of labour and a valuable under- standing of the shortsea and feeder markets as well as the deepsea trades.” The Port of Tilbury is partnering with Spain’s Port of Bilbao in the IBUK Intermodal Corridor project, which is supported with a €7.3 million Motorways of the Sea grant from the EC’s TEN-T agency. The project aims to reduce congestion between the Iberian Peninsula and the UK by shifting cargo away from trucks driving through western and southern Europe, primarily to rail and shortsea shipping. Tilbury’s portion of the funding paid for parts of the container terminal development.

Heading upwards Tilbury has seen very significant growth in volumes in its non-containerised cargo streams, which represent about half of the port’s throughput. That includes grain – 50% of all the deepsea milling wheat imported into the UK comes through Tilbury – and bulks in particular. Tilbury is the UK’s leading port for forest products, handling everything from giant reels of newsprint to plywood and panel products. Roll-on/roll-off freight is also strong, with P&O Ferries, DFDS and Grimaldi all major players, and Tilbury is also an important vehicle-handling port, providing the UK port of entry for Hyundai. Waste and recyclable products are another important part of the mix. Tilbury has been handling spoil from the Crossrail and Thames Water Lea Tunnel projects for the past two years, and is poised to step up that activity when the Tideway Tunnel project gets under way. In another major cargo stream, up to 250,000 tonnes of bottom ash from Cory Environmental’s energy from waste facility at Belvedere is barged in containers down to Tilbury, where it is processed and then recycled to go out again by coaster or truck as road building and construction aggregates. Road salt is imported through Tilbury and biomass is exported to energy projects in Sweden. Other waste streams arrive baled at the port, where they are containerised and then shipped out to the for generating energy. Tilbury is proud of its ‘green’ record – especially as it is on the doorstep of the UK’s biggest consumer market.

What they say... “The fast, efficient turnround at London Container Terminal allows me to maximise my throughput; therefore I am able to offer my company’s services at a compet- itive cost. As a tenant within the port, my business has grown with the assistance of Port of Tilbury and London Container Terminal personnel’s understanding and knowledge of the supply chain.” Mike Brown, managing partner, The Logistics Terminal. “In the past year, Capespan International has had 700 containers pass through Tilbury port. London Container Terminal is reliable and gives us good information on vessel arrival times. It is especially useful that there are several movements a day between the container inspection area and the stack.” Robin Moran, Capespan International. “As a reefer specialist, Premier Freight has shared goals with London Container Terminal – we need flexibility and avail- ability to meet our customers’ needs, and LCT has always listened and responded. A constant dialogue with LCT enables us to get boxes away quicker, customers’ product in store quicker, empty equip- ment back on quay and into the lines’ circulation quicker – everyone gains.” John Ressell, director, Premier Freight Services.

Measuring 36.5 metres in length and 13 metres wide, it has been designed squat and shallow enough to negotiate bridges and mudbanks as far upriver as Richmond Lock and Weir, and robust enough to face the windswept waters of the estuary.

Marine Construction & Marine Civil Engineering

Working in the field of marine construction and civil engineering for over 20 years, Commercial Marine & Piling have the capability to undertake maritime construction projects in the most hostile of environments. The volatility and unpredictability of conditions caused by storm, waves, currents and tides provide additional challenges to those faced by civil engineers working onshore.

With a highly experienced team, CMP provides an expert service for marine construction services ranging from Principal Contracting to specialist sub-contract works. We operate with a high regard to Health and Safety, with all our workforce and management trained to high safety standards. In the offshore construction environment we constantly have to assess risk and ensure we are well placed to manage these risks.

Calor Gas Terminal The Calor Gas Terminal on Canvey Island handles a throughput of circa 120,000 tonnes of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) a year. The Canvey Terminal plays a major role in the success of Calor as the leading distributor of LPG. It has a dedicated jetty, which allows for refrigerated LPG imports from VLGCs of up to 250 metres loa, with the product being stored in eight separate insulated tanks at -43 degrees centigrade. LPG imports are distributed inland by road tanker and via a 12-kilometre LPG pipeline that connects the Canvey Terminal to Calor’s Coryton Filling Plant, giving an important environmental advantage by reducing the number of road tanker movements in and out of the terminal. Some LPG is re-exported by ship via pressurised LPG carriers to many European countries, ranging from the Canary Islands to Poland. The Canvey Terminal helps to ensure the continuity of supply to Calor’s UK customers and its strategic location provides Calor with access to a network of worldwide LPG suppliers. The terminal also plays a key role in the international storage and supply strategies of Calor’s parent company, SHV, which operates LPG business throughout Europe, Asia and South America.

The company had a good year in 2013, with volumes up as it supplied aggregates to several major construction projects. Stema’s facilities were also used to receive about 600,000 tonnes of chalk risings from tunneling projects in London. Red Lion Wharf, which is owned by Stema, has a 220-metre jetty with depth alongside of seven metres and six acres of open storage for imported aggregates. About 750,000 tonnes of sand, gravel and aggregates from Stema’s own quarries in Norway, and sand from Denmark, are imported through this facility. Of this, about 150,000 tonnes goes back out by barge, and the company is looking at ways of increasing this. At Tilbury, Stema operates at 1 Berth, where it has 10.5 metres water depth and a 2.75 acre site. At present it handles about 300,000 tonnes at Tilbury. Stema invested about £95 million upgrading Jelsa Quarry to an output of 11 million tonnes a year. Work was completed in August 2010, and this is now the largest coastal aggregates quarry in the world. The company took delivery of three new self- discharging 32,000 dwt vessels in 2010. A key strength for Stema is its fully independent supply of aggregates with an integrated supply chain from quarry through to delivery to the end user.
