Ports and Maritime Facilities

So many issues affect the maritime industry. Business aspects of public and private port operations, the infrastructure necessary for smooth cargo flows, modern intermodal systems and the importance of landside access are all factors. In spite of these intricate issues, HDR's port and maritime professionals have specialized expertise to help you make the most of your budget.

Waterfront projects are a special area of expertise for HDR. Our experience ranges from ship docks to shoreline protection, dredging and industrial facilities, plus unique projects such as the berthing of historical ships. We provide planning, feasibility studies, condition assessments, permitting, design and inspection for public and private clients. We also have considerable experience in renovating and upgrading existing docks to accommodate deeper channels and berth larger ships.

Our in-depth experience includes every aspect of maritime facility planning and design, both waterside and landside. Considered individually, HDR professionals bring deep experience in many separate technical fields. Taken collectively, we offer unified capabilities that can address all aspects of a complex marine project.
