CARGILL SHIPLOADER FOUNDATIONS

Westwego, Louisiana

This additional shiploader project entailed upgrading Cargill's Westwego facility to loadout product on super-Panamax carriers. To accomplish this, Massman removed an old shiploader, conveyor gallery, and shiploader tower. As an added upgrade to the facility, all new conveyors and chutes were installed in the main loader tower. 

To transport grain from the main loader tower to the new shiploader, a conveyor gallery foundation and tower were installed. Lastly, a mooring pile was added to assist ships in docking while being loaded.
