Rabaul Wharf Restoration
Client: Gazelle Restoration Authority / World Bank
Dredge: Scorpio 30”
Date: May 2005 – September 2005
In 1994, the volcano in Rabual erupted and destroyed the township
and harbour. Volcanic Ash metres thick buried the livelihoods
of the local people. Since then, the town has been slowly recovered
and part of that effort included reopening of the all important
sea wharves.
Hall Contracting was contracted to carry out dredging of this
volcanic ash at Berths 1 & 2 and Dawapia Wharf. |
