Deepwater Port GonzalezFeasibility study

Le projet

The creation of a deepwater port would represent a major challenge for the State of Guinea, which would thus have a tool to reconcile the productivity expected by mining operators with the imperatives of governance and regional planning. So, as part of a review to update the master plan, a site was identified as an appropriate location for such a project. This site, with its natural draught of around twenty meters, is located in the extension of the mouth of the Rio Nunez, where the country’s main bauxite production is concentrated today. The maritime site could be served by a jetty some 8km long.

Nos missions

setec international’s mission is to study the pre-feasibility of creating such a port off the coast of Guinea.

This mission is divided into two stages: pre-feasibility and feasibility. The pre-feasibility study included the following services:

  • Analysis and definition of the needs to be covered by the project,
  • Implementation and analysis of the topo-bathymetric campaign,
  • Preliminary maritime climatology study,
  • Drafting of a report summarizing the site’s natural conditions,
  • Preliminary study of terrestrial links to the site,
  • Conceptual layout of the port,
  • Approach to realization costs,
  • Pre-feasibility report
