Development of two construction and service marinas

Our role

Red Sea Global (RSG) appointed Ayesa to provide marine and coastal engineering consultancy services to develop and deliver two construction and service marinas located at the coastal development and the island. The construction marinas are required to enable the delivery of construction materials, equipment and personnel to and from the mainland of Saudi Arabia and The Island. As part of the permanent master plan, we have designed the construction marinas to be developed as later service marinas to enable the continued serving of the island. The permanent marinas have been designed to include sophisticated superyacht facilities to accommodate vessels up to 150m in length. 

Ayesa delivered an extensive scope of works which included site assessments and survey specifications, numerical modelling studies of wave transformation, hydrodynamic, flushing and wave disturbance and the marine design of the predominate structures including quay walls, revetments, breakwaters, berthing facilities and temporary works for the construction marina basin. 

Value added

Ayesa’s extensive modelling capabilities enabled the masterplans and internal layouts to be interrogated to derive favourable solutions for both marina flushing and wave disturbance for vessel tranquillity. Ayesa engineers coordinated the requirement for both the construction and permanent project stages to develop cost-effective solutions which delivered both stages under budget and achieved the construction programme requirement.
