Peterhead Bay North Base Quay: 
North Breakwater

The North Base was designed to provide a wide range of services to the construction and hook-up sectors of the oil industry. The base offers facilities for heavy lift operations, office and warehouse accommodation and ready access to engineering and fabrication services. The North Breakwater has an 18 metre wide deck and minimum alongside depth of up to 14 metres. The berths are protected by a combination of heavy rubber tyre and hardwood fenders which can be supplemented by 4 Yokohama fenders of 2 metre diameter. The Authority has recently constructed a wave wall along the seaward side of the structure, which will significantly reduce downtime caused by overtopping seas. This will allow clients to plan operations with a much greater degree of confidence that work will not be disrupted due to adverse weather.

North Base Jetty

The North Base Jetty is an open piled concrete decked jetty measuring 122 metres in length and 15 metres wide. The two serviced berths, one on each side, have a minimum water depth of up to 7 metres.
