Our construction management team is currently overseeing the development of a new second berth at Trigon Pacific Terminals (Trigon), in Prince Rupert, British Columbia, as part of the terminal’s Berth Two Beyond Carbon (B2BC) project.
Project Construction Milestone
The B2BC project has reached a key construction milestone, with the marine works construction now over 50 per cent complete. Seventy-five per cent of the piles that will form a permanent part of the structure are now in the water, the new marine habitat artificial reef is in place, and the final project phase – installation of the topside berth equipment – remains on schedule for completion by the end of 2026.
B2BC is a key component of Trigon’s diversification strategy and will nearly double the terminal’s capacity from 18.5 million tonnes to an estimated 33.5 million tonnes annually. It is anticipated that the berth will be ready to receive its first vessel in early 2027. Once operational, the berth will have capacity for Supramax and Panamax-sized vessels, including VLGCs (Very Large Gas Carriers) and VLACs (Very Large Ammonia Carriers) with a draft of 13 metres, a breadth of up to 38 metres, and an overall length (LOA) of up to 230 metres.
