www.hdrinc.com Key Features Conversion of a small craft pier to a liquid bulk terminal Structural repairs of pier, jetty platform, mooring and breasting structures Involved in all engineering phases of the project FLINT HILLS 41 DOCK 5 - LIQUID BULK TERMINAL Flint Hills Resources | Ingleside, Texas Flint Hills Resources is an independent refining and chemicals company that operates refineries in Alaska (North Pole), Minnesota (Rosemount) and Texas (Corpus Christi) and has a combined crude oil processing capacity of more than 800,000 barrels of crude oil per day. To capitalize market share of the 2008 Eagle Ford Shale crude play, Flint Hills purchased a portion of Naval Station Ingleside from the Port of Corpus Christi. Improvements required preparation of the marine portion of the terminal for handling Eagle Ford Shale crude at a cost of approximately $40 million. HDR was involved with all engineering phases of the marine facilities — from conception (budgeting, planning, etc.) to completion (design, bidding, construction, etc.) and start-up of the facilities (equipment procurement, installation, initial operation, etc.). The project involved converting a lightly loaded small craft pier into a liquid bulk terminal to serve deep-draft oceangoing and shallow-draft intracoastal barges. Improvements included structural repairs of the small craft pier, a concrete pile-supported 40-foot x 60-foot jetty platform with a 25-foot x25-foot x55-foot steel hose tower, monopile mooring and breasting structures, pipe catwalks, dredging and cathodic protection systems.

The Freeport LNG site is on the eastern end of Quintana Island adjacent to the intersection of the 45-foot deep Freeport Ship Channel and the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway.

Navigation safety and potential impacts on other traffic were major considerations for this location. Extensive analysis and vessel maneuvering simulation studies were conducted to determine the optimal arrangement for the berthing area. Maneuvering and casualty scenario studies were used to demonstrate the ability to accommodate LNG carriers up to the proposed 260,000-cubic meter Q-MAX class and to verify the number and sizes of tugs necessary to safely berth the vessels.

HDR assisted in the site selection, project planning, environmental impact evaluations, marine terminal design, and regulatory phases. Services included coordination with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the U.S. Coast Guard, port officials and harbor pilots, and participation in the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) licensing process. Related work included assistance with the Waterway Suitability Assessments hazard zone classifications, emergency response and safety plans, and the Facility Security Plan.

HDR prepared the Front End Engineering Documents (FEED) for the marine facilities including the jetty platform, breasting/mooring structures, shoreline protection, docks for tugs and line handling vessels, and ancillary facilities. Related services included dredging project design, dredged material placement for beneficial use and navigation aids design.

HDR evaluated the engineering, environmental, and financial issues associated with widening the Freeport Ship Channel from 400 feet to 600 feet. This was a direct result of simulation studies that showed widening is necessary to accommodate the Q-MAX LNG vessels. Ongoing work includes work with the USACE to facilitate non-Federal widening of the channel, the first such project of its kind.
