WHY KATLANTIC
FEATURED PROJECTS
Following the devastating 2017 storm, Katlantic was contracted through WBHO to execute critical structural underwater repairs to Berth 3 at the Bulk Connections Coal Terminal. This complex operation required careful coordination, precision diving, and integrated topside support to repair significant collision damage to the quay wall.

Katlantic was subcontracted to support the extension of the Tug Jetty at the Port of Durban. The works required large-scale dredging, scour protection, and precision surveying to ensure the safe completion and long-term stability of the structure.

Katlantic was appointed to supply, install, and maintain pneumatic marine fenders at the coal terminal berths of the Port of Durban. The project required close coordination between land-based and marine crews to ensure a seamless interface between land and water operations and the safe integration of the new fender systems.
