๐ Tender Overview
Scope of Work:
To Build Ship Scrapping and Recycling Project at west of the Damietta Port.
Description:
Spanning 155,000 square meters, the project will be built west of the Damietta Port's western barrier. It involves the construction of a sea barrier extending one and a half kilometers to combat siltation, with dredging operations adhering to Ministry of Transport guidelines. The project will enhance the iron and steel industry by replacing imported solid scrap with locally sourced materials from ship recycling. The project will establish a scrapyard capable of handling vessels of all sizes, adhering to international standards. This infrastructure will facilitate the procurement of ships in accordance with global regulations such as those outlined in the Hong Kong and Basel conventions, as well as European ship recycling regulations. Over five years, the project is anticipated to generate 1.5 million tons of scrap annually, thus fulfilling 66% of the local market's demand for scrap and curbing reliance on imports.
