A well that Griffin dewatering installed in Denver Colorado to complete a pump test to determine the dewatering system that will be required.
The well was 8” in diameter, all PVC, drilled 35’ to claystone. We placed a 5HP pump in the well and it yielded over the 200 GPM that was required. The sand content of the water was only listed as a trace or less than one parts per million, the NTU was less than 1 which is equivalent to tap water.
The upper 10’ of the well had to be containerized into barrels due to contamination. The well was drilled and installed in one day, and then pump tested the next day.
The Jacksonville Port Authority (JAXPORT) and its terminal operating partner, Enstructure, recently moved 4,500-tons of frozen poultry in a single breakbulk shipment. Shipping the cargo via breakbulk rather than as containerized cargo helped significantly reduce transit time from the U.S. to its final destination in the Caribbean.
The move was JAXPORT’s first large poultry shipment since 2015. The cargo, which was previously shipped via container through other U.S. ports, shifted to JAXPORT to take advantages of the port’s efficiencies and uncongested berths.
“With the high cost and low availability of containers, the exporters needed to have another means of moving the poultry,” said Enstructure’s Brian Hubert. “Going to the different container terminals was taking them roughly two to four weeks to get their cargo to the discharge ports. When we load, it’s there in two days. We can do it more efficiently than containers with larger volumes, making it more cost-effective for our customers.”
Enstructure’s skilled labor, which operates as Seaonus Stevedoring at JAXPORT’s Talleyrand Marine Terminal, loaded the palletized chicken onto the refrigerated cargo vessel Green Guatemala. An organized staging and loading process ensured a seamless transition for the temperature-controlled cargo.
“JAXPORT was an integral partner in making sure that cargo move was a success,” Hubert said. “JAXPORT has been extremely cooperative in supporting our operation to ensure a successful outcome for our customer.”
“Companies are looking for ways to get around the congestion at other U.S. ports and move their freight as quickly as possible,” said JAXPORT Director of Cargo Sales Alberto Cabrera. “JAXPORT is known as one of the most diversified ports in the nation in terms of business lines. This flexibility has kept us delay-free throughout the pandemic and allowed us to serve the evolving needs of new and existing customers during this time.”
JAXPORT is Florida’s largest container port and one of the nation’s top vehicle-handling ports. Located in the heart of the nation’s rail and highway network, Jacksonville offers same-day access to 98 million U.S. consumers.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (Aug. 5, 2019) - Cargo activity through Jacksonville’s seaport positively impacts tens of thousands of jobs and supports nearly $31.1 billion in annual economic output for the region and state, according to a newly released study. The study, citing double-digit growth in the port’s total economic impact over the last five years, was conducted by Martin Associates, a widely recognized maritime research firm.
In the Jacksonville area, the study concludes that 26,282 people are employed in port-dependent positions—direct, indirect and induced jobs relying on the port. This figure represents a nearly 8 percent increase over a previous study conducted in 2013. The port’s total economic value of $31.1 billion has also increased 15 percent during this time. In addition, the study finds that 138,500 jobs across the state of Florida are related to cargo moving through Jacksonville’s port.
Port-dependent jobs pay an average annual salary of $70,570, well above the state of Florida average salary for all occupations of $46,010.
JAXPORT’s Asian container trade is a primary driver of the port’s containerized cargo growth, up 89 percent since 2013. JAXPORT offers competitive transit times to destinations in Asia including China, Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, Thailand and more.
The port achieved significant Asian volume increases following the 2017 decision by the JAXPORT Board of Directors to begin construction on the project to deepen the Jacksonville shipping channel to 47 ft. The report finds that this steady volume growth underscores the importance of harbor deepening, which will allow JAXPORT to accommodate more cargo aboard the increasingly larger ships calling Jacksonville. The project is ahead of schedule and expected to be complete in 2023, based on continued funding from all partners.
A previous study conducted by Martin Associates in 2014 projected that JAXPORT’s Asian container business would generate 5,675 direct, indirect and induced jobs by the year 2020. The new study finds the actual number of these jobs in 2018 has already reached 5,538, a difference of about 2 percent from the forecast for 2020.
The report also finds that every 1,000 vehicles that move through the port supports 1.6 direct local jobs. JAXPORT is the nation’s second largest vehicle-handling port, moving more than 665,000 units last year.
“The successes we are experiencing throughout all of our lines of business have a direct and lasting impact on our region and state,” said JAXPORT CEO Eric Green. “The more we continue to invest in this port and grow our reputation as a global gateway into the Southeast U.S., the more jobs we create for our neighbors and the more revenue we put back into our area’s economy.”
The study concludes that in 2018, cargo activity at Jacksonville’s seaport generated $2.6 billion in business revenue, including $767.4 million in wages, $634.6 million in business purchases and $247.1 million in state and local taxes.

iPods, blu-ray players, giant screen TVs, or maybe just a bunch of rubber chickens fill containers on the The German vessel "Kobe Express" arriving in Oakland, California after a trans-Pacific voyage.
The Kobe Express (originally the Shanghai Express until 2002) is a container ship that was built in 1997 by Samsung Shipbuilding & Heavy Industries. It is 965 feet in length and 105 feet wide, making it the largest size container ship able to navigate the Panama Canal before the 2016 expansion. It is owned by Hapag-Lloyd, a German transportation company headquartered in Hamburg.
Early container ships were modified World War II tankers. The first purpose built container ship was the Clifford J. Dodgers in 1955. Today, about 90% of all cargo (other than bulks such as oil, grain, etc.) is transported by container. The intermodal nature allows products to be loaded into a container and transported to the ship via truck or rail. The entire unit is loaded onto the ship by crane instead of being loaded by crews into the hold as they did before containerization. Then, upon arrival at the destination port, reloaded onto land vehicles and transported to their destination.

Mayor Villaraigosa hosted Vice President Xi on a tour of the Port of Los Angeles, the country’s largest container port and a key driver of the local economy. Together with the Port of Long Beach, the Port complex handles 40% of all containerized goods from China. At the Port, Vice President Xi met with employees of China Shipping, which is undertaking a major expansion project of their terminal within the Port of Los Angeles. Mr. Xi said that the port’s development and China Shipping are "a solid foundation for continued U.S. and China trade and continued economic cooperation."
Mr. Xi’s visit will have "a direct effect on" China's relationship with the U.S., said Li Shaode, the chairman of Shanghai-based China Shipping. He also noted that his company’s ships are returning from the Port of Los Angeles with more U.S. products. Mr Li stated: "American exports...have benefits for the U.S. and the Chinese people."

"Throughout the lifetime of the Academy, there has been a constant need to keep pace with developments in the practice and operations of shipping. The advent of containerized cargo, the introduction of VLCCs, the huge growth in size of ships of all types, automation, one-man bridge operation: these are just a few of the game-changing developments since the Academy was formed."

CEA Project Logistics were contracted for the transportation, assembly and installation of a metal press for a Metal Stamping and Assembly Factory in Rayong province, Thailand.
CEA received a combination of containerized and flat rack OOG cargo to their Cargo Consolidation Facility in Laem Chabang. Each container was unloaded and unstuffed. Several sections of the main bed and tie-rod uprights were assembled by CEA before transportation.
Upon arrival at the factory, the remaining press parts and sections were unloaded and assembled. As several sections were of considerable size and weight CEA erected a temporary gantry crane to assist in installation. The crane was placed over a pre-constructed pit which would house the completed press. The press bed section was lifted and placed into position and aligned on the pit floor.
Other sections were carefully lifted and moved into place with the crown section being installed last. Tie rods and bolts were tightened to complete the assembly of the major sections. The gantry crane was removed to allow a small mobile crane and Elevated Work Platform to install the smaller parts. Upon the project completion, both CEA and the client were very happy with the efficiency and expertise of the installation.

A modern Trabucco Structure is pictured, using steel and electric winches. Traditionally the trabucco or trabocco is an old fishing machine typical of the coast of Abruzzi region (especially in the Trabocchi Coast or Costa dei Trabocchi) and also in the coast of Gargano, where they are protected as historical monuments in the Gargano National Park. Trabucchi are spread along the coast of the southern Adriatic, especially in the Italian provinces of Chieti, Campobasso, and Foggia, and also in some parts of the coast of the southern Tyrrhenian Sea. The trabucchi are a distinguishing feature of the coastal landscape of the lower Adriatic. Their presence is also attested on the lower Tyrrhenian Sea. A traditional trabucco is a massive construction built from wood consisting of a platform anchored to the rock by large logs of Aleppo pine, jutting out into the sea. From this platform, two (or more) long arms called antennae stretch out suspended some feet above the water, supporting a huge, narrow-meshed, net (called trabocchetto). Aleppo pine was used because this material was widely available, modeled, elastic, weatherproof and resistant to salt. At least two men are entrusted with the tough task of operating the winches that maneuver the giant net / Port of Ravenna is an Italian seaport on the North Adriatic Sea in Ravenna, Italy.
