big ships in Exolgan Container Terminal.
The firm elaborated the preliminary project that was used as the
basis for the bid for the widenning of the East bank. In addition,
we elaborated the preliminary project and the bid and work direction
project for the widenning works, which included demolition of the
existing gravity structure and construction of a new front, with
