The Nikola Tesla thermal power plant intends to build new mechanized cargo ports, which would serve TENT A and TENT B for its own needs, and the Electric Power Industry of Serbia has signed contracts with designers who will prepare projects for construction permits.
The contractor for the development of both projects is the company Ehting from Belgrade, which submitted a bid for the development of the project for TENT A with the Belgrade companies Trioprojekt, Utving and Geo-test. The value of the contract is slightly less than 350 thousand euros.
The contract for the design of the port at the TENT B location is worth almost 420 thousand euros, and in addition to the companies Ehting, Utving and Geo-test, Geosystem and Midway will also participate in the development of the project.
According to the documentation published by EPS during the public procurement in March, the construction of the port would enable river transport of coal for the needs of thermal power plants, limestone for desulphurization, but also placement of ash and gypsum, as by-products of the production process, for commercial purposes.
The ports are located on the right bank of the Sava River, and in both ports it is planned to build administrative buildings, registration offices, workshops with tool storage, covered warehouses and substations.
The construction of a vertical quay wall with a reinforced concrete structure is planned along the entire coast.
The documentation should stipulate that the transshipment of bulk cargo (limestone and coal) is done with an appropriate portal port crane, on rails.
When designing, it is necessary to pay special attention to the existing system of wells and well infrastructure. If there is a collision with underground installations, envisage a technical solution for relocation of installations or adjust the solution of port areas and infrastructure to well infrastructure, eKapija reports.
