Description:

 

 

The company was commissioned to design two new naval bases for the Libyan government. These bases were also to serve as civilian ports. For security reasons these bases were to be located remote from centres of population and hence they had to be on previously unused sites. The projects included the full provision of marine and land based services, dredged channels, quays, accommodation, industrial areas and office complexes. The cost effective solution for one site was for an offshore harbour whereas for the other a harbour basin was formed by dredging inshore of the coastline.
