Mastering the marine environment

At Yakka, we thrive on complex challenges, especially when they involve the unique demands of New Zealand's marine landscapes. Discover how our expertise transformed the Devonport Syncrolift Wharf, showcasing our commitment to precision, safety, and environmental stewardship.

Auckland's marine revitalisation: The Devonport Syncrolift wharf project

Yakka was tasked with a significant undertaking: the complete removal of the redundant Syncrolift wharf at Devonport. Our primary objective was to meticulously remove all structures down to the low water tide seabed level, ensuring minimal disruption and maximum environmental protection for this sensitive marine location. It was a testament to our planning and execution.

Advanced techniques for challenging waters

The successful delivery of the Devonport Syncrolift Wharf project hinged on Yakka's strategic deployment of specialised equipment and innovative techniques. Our expert use of heavy-duty cranes, stable barges, and cutting-edge underwater wire saws was absolutely critical, enabling us to achieve precise and controlled demolition even in complex underwater conditions.
