1 TOC Europe Delivering Major Port Projects Martin Mannion, AECOM and Finlo Paish, MPS Ghana

2 Typical Project Objectives Deliver a major new greenfield port Achieve key dates for operations Ensure port is fit for purpose Effective change control and cost management Manage risk Manage safety

3 Frequent Project Challenges Interface between contracts Scope creep Ground conditions Schedule Quality of contractors designs Health and Safety External Parties Access to site Operational interface Permits

4 Addressing Those Challenges Define project needs and timescale(s) Assess required resources to deliver (staff & skills, contractors, materials over the project timeline) Assess delivery paths & means Allocate responsibilities & requirements over the project delivery timeline: client, support and works contractors / equipment suppliers Can / should client ramp up to self deliver or source expert support? To redevelop ports while maintaining operations is complex Larger projects complexity can be solved with a comprehensive Programme Management approach, especially for a multiple contract, phased mega project

5 The PMC Role Strategy ADVISOR MANAGER ENGINEER Programme Management Reporting Cost Management Communicating Risk Management FIDIC Form of Contract Contract Administration Construction Supervision Colombo Expansion, Sri Lanka Mubarak Al Kabeer Sea Port, Kuwait Port of Cape Town, South Africa

6 Basis of PMC Approach Contract strategy / procurement Management relationships (site and external) Collaborative approach Robust communications Interface Skills Proven project management processes Certified quality systems Robust design management Proven project controls Focus on cost and change control Experienced senior leadership Change control procedures Manage / minimise risks Use major ports track record Technical and Commercial knowledge

7 Example 1: New Doha (Hamad) Port, Qatar New Port, Naval Base & Economic Zone Canal Replaces the old Doha port, allows economic growth 26.5km 2 area, greenfield US$7 billion development

8 Project Scope

9 The Port Area: Plan and Status Container Terminal 1 & general cargo terminal operational All quays built, backland areas being finalised Channel now being deepened to -17m to suit bigger ships

10 Programme Organisation

11 Programme Management Role & Team Manage multiple contracts from Master Plan to Operations Some 80 contracts procured and delivered to date, including works, equipment & various services New client organisation so greater client support needed AECOM staffing peak 320 staff on site & 13,000 workers AECOM staffing numbers, profile and skills varied over time to match needs and programme First operations: December 2016 (container terminal 1 & general cargo)

12 Safety for Life Joint Safety Organisation: New Doha (Hamad) Port, Qatar Toolbox talks educate workers about creating and maintaining safer work conditions and are part of the project s commitment to a zero injury philosophy A visible presence is a key element of the management of onsite safety and the commitment to the 'safety for life' philosophy

14 Example 2: MPS Tema Port Expansion, Ghana

15 About MPS MPS is a container terminal operating in Tema Port since 2002 MPS is a JV between GPHA, Bollore and APMT June 2015: MPS and GPHA signed a Deed of Amendement for the Construction of the New Tema Port BOLLORE AL APM Terminals Current MPS facility 25 ha 50% Meridian Port 50% Holding Ltd 70% 30% Ghana Ports and Harbour Authority

16 MPS Tema Port Expansion, Ghana MPS Client is JV of APMT, Bollore, Ghana Ports & Harbour Authority; MPS lead team on site Overall US$1.5 billion greenfield container terminal development adjacent to existing Tema Port AECOM PMC appointment for four years, working closely with client team based on site Started Jan 2016, first operations 2 berths end June 2019, further phases afterwards Marine works contract (CHEC) under way, various onshore contracts (yard Eiffage/RMT, buildings Komsar and others) now started

17 Construction and Equipment Packages The project is split into a number of packages Port construction Marine Works CHEC Buildings Works Komsar Paving & Utilities Eiffage Equipment Tender MV power Reefer racks MPS supply Fuel station Scanner facilities IT

18 Implementation Establish reporting & communications PM Web, Primevera etc. Risk Management Plan, Change Management Plan Agree (and refine) Procurement strategy Health & Safety, Environmental Permitting & Approvals Safety in Design approach Gap analysis, critical path dependencies Contracts progress, Progress S curves, RFIs, Critical quantities, Deliverables, Design reviews, Quality, Audit plan, Costs, Cashflow Interfaces (contracts, client and authorities, stakeholders) Change Management critical

24 Conclusions Define project needs and timescale(s) Assess required resources to deliver (staff & skills, for client / PMC / contractors, materials) Assess delivery paths & means Allocate responsibilities & requirements over the project delivery timeline: client, support and works contractors / equipment suppliers, procurement strategy Can/should client ramp up to self deliver or source expert support?
