Cavotec MSL protection systems for Port of Camden, New Jersey
June 9, 2009 - Global engineering group, Cavotec MSL, has signed a deal with marine equipment supplier Atlantic Subsea Inc. to supply cathodic protection pit assemblies for the South Jersey Port Beckett Terminal at the Port of Camden, NJ.
“Ships and port infrastructure are constantly exposed to corrosion – damage that in time undermines safety and operational efficiency. Our cathodic pit systems drastically reduce corrosion rates on all types of metallic surface,” says Cavotec Dabico Vice President Sales and Marketing, Dan Foster.
Twenty Cavotec cathodic protection pit assemblies will be installed at the Port of Camden’s South Jersey Port Beckett Terminal.
The units are to protect electrical system conduits that will serve the Marine Terminal facility at Port Beckett. Delivery is scheduled for August, and the terminal is due to open in October.
Cathodic protection (CP) controls corrosion of metal surfaces by making metals behave as cathodes in electrochemical cells.
Located on the Delaware River, close to the Atlantic Ocean, the South Jersey Port Corporation handles primarily bulk cargo vessels.
Manufactured by Cavotec Dabico, the cathodic protection systems for the Port of Camden represent one of the Cavotec Group’s key strengths; the ability to harness technologies from one sector and apply them to others.
“Offering port operators systems originally designed for the airports sector creates efficiencies for all involved. We hope to provide our customers with more of these synergies in the future,” says Christian Bernadotte, President Cavotec Dabico US.
