REEF is a large-scale liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and bulk liquids terminal with rail, logistics, and marine infrastructure on Ridley Island, British Columbia, Canada.
ABL’s scope of work includes marine advisory and MWS for the transportation of critical and heavy project cargo from both international and domestic suppliers.
For the early planning phase, ABL’s marine advisory support services comprises commercial and technical bid evaluations as well as engineering design support. For the execution phase, ABL’s MWS services include independent third-party engineering review, vessel inspection, and site representation during cargo handling and transportation from overseas fabrication locations to Canada.
ABL’s involvement has already commenced and will continue until the first quarter of 2026. ABL has not disclosed the value of its contract.
ABL’s operation in Canada will lead the project, with support from ABL’s offices in Houston, Texas, and China.
“The REEF project will receive critical equipment from several corners of the world. Our job is to help make sure it arrives safely on site. Our global office network of marine transportation specialists will play a key role in achieving this,” says David Ballands, ABL’s director of energy services in the Americas region.
