Overview
Terminal Expansion and Track Realignment
Concept-to-constructible support for a crude-by-rail terminal expansion, including track realignment, constructability planning, and field-ready coordination.
Overview
Terminal projects don’t fail because of “big ideas”—they fail in the interfaces: geometry, staging, and the handoff from design intent to field reality. This project focused on expanding a crude-by-rail terminal while realigning track to support constructible phasing and predictable operations.
What we delivered
- Track realignment concepts refined into a build-ready layout
- Coordination of expansion requirements with yard geometry and operational constraints
- Constructability-first detailing to reduce surprises during construction
- Support for field questions and design clarifications during execution
Engineering focus areas
- Operational flow and switching movements
- Fit-up with existing infrastructure and tie-in constraints
- Staging and phasing considerations (keeping service continuity in mind)
- Clear documentation for contractors and stakeholders
Outcome
A coordinated, constructible package that supports terminal expansion goals while improving clarity around scope, interfaces, and execution sequencing.
Services included
- Design
- Engineering
- Construction Support
- Project Management (as required)
Next steps
If you’re planning a terminal expansion or need to de-risk a realignment, we can review your existing layout and identify the highest-impact improvements first.
