Raymond Int'l For

Dock Work In Nigeria

Raymond International of Del- aware, a wholly owned subsidiary of Raymond International Inc., 2801 South Post Oak Road, P.O.

Box 22718, Houston, Texas 77027, has been awarded a contract for over $11 million in conjunction with the expansion of the Port of Warri, Nigeria.

Raymond will install concrete cylinder pile foundations for new docks that will increase the port's total number of berths from two to eight. "Raymond has been actively as- sisting in the development of Ni- geria since the 1940s. In the last decade, the development pace has accelerated, and so has our work there. This new award means that

Raymond's contracts in Nigeria during the past two years have a total value of over $40 million," said Henry F. LeMieux, president and chairman.

A Raymond manufacturing af- filiate, located in Virginia, will fabricate 36-inch-diameter con- crete cylinder piles averaging 82 feet in length. From the plant, piles will be barged nearly 6,000 miles to Warri. "This project is our first oppor- tunity to utilize the Raymond pre- cast, prestressed concrete cylinder pile in Nigeria. This pile is a su- perior construction material for marine projects because of its great structural strength com- bined with a high resistance to corrosion, damage from marine life and water action," Mr. Le-

Mieux added.

Foundation construction on the 6,500-foot-long wharf is sched- uled to begin in December of 1977 and to be completed in the latter part of 1978. Raymond will also perform soil boring tests at the site.

Raymond specializes in marine heavy construction and founda- tions. In the Arabian Gulf, the company is using concrete cylin- der piles for construction of a six-mile-long liquefied petroleum gas pipeline support trestle under a contract for about $150 million.

The concrete cylinder piles for that project are being manufac- tured at a Raymond plant lo- cated in the United Arab Emirates and barged 400 miles to the con- struction site at Ju'Aymah, Saudi
