In week 14 Cofra started installing 5.5 million meters of drain for the expansion of the Port of Mombasa in Kenya for the Japanese contractor Toyo Construction.
The drains are being installed by four drain stitchers that are operational day and night. In the coming weeks a network of horizontal and vertical drains will be constructed in record time.
This is done together with Boskalis who performs the dredging.
Kenya, as one of the more stable countries in the region, is facing an increasing demand for container storage capacity. To meet this growing demand the port of Mombasa is being expanded.
