Utilizing survey data files of existing property boundaries, and facility infrastructure, Resolute’s Civil & Mechanical engineers were tasked with preliminary grassroots layout of a products tank terminal with truck unloading and barge loading capabilities.

- Developed Preliminary PFDs showing pump and line sizing.
- Estimated total project costs, and prepared a preliminary project plan.
- Prepared a custom geotechnical specification for the unique site geological features, with tank and foundation design in mind.
- Siting of tankage and impoundment challenges included accommodating a pipeline corridor and HDD workspace for a channel drill within the tank farm boundary. This required real time communication with multiple client contacts to balance the needs of all parties.
