The Port Authority of the Balearic Islands (APB) has completed the work to replace the floating pier of the fishing quay in the port of Ibiza, used to moor the vessels of the Fishermen’s Guild and for use by the APB.

The work consisted of renewing the original pier, which dated back to 1993 and had come to the end of its working life. Four prefabricated reinforced concrete floating pier modules measuring 2.4 m wide and 12m long with an expanded polystyrene core and wooden fenders were installed for this purposes. The existing wiring was also entirely replaced, and new water and electricity utility towers have been installed on the piers.

 

One side of the pier will be used by the Fishermen’s Guild to moor their fishing vessels. The other half will be used for moorings directly managed and used by the APB.

 

The work has taken four months and was awarded to the company Sealand on Offshore Services SL. The budget for the work amounted to 378,000 euros plus VAT.
