MB92 expands its installations at Barcelona's port<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Flovac was in charge of the installation of a vacuum sewerage system in the MB92 Port of Barcelona expansion project to collect wastewater and ensure environmental protection in the area.<\/p>\n

Marina Barcelona 92<\/a> (MB92), a company dedicated to the maintenance and repair of superyachts, was in charge of carrying out the ambitious project<\/a> to expand the port coastline of Barcelona, in the Port Vell area. The project, started in 2015 and completed in 2019, consisted of the construction of a large surface area in which a new boat lifting system (known as shiplift<\/a>) would be located, with the aim of grounding yachts of up to 4,000 tons for repair and maintenance. Currently, it is the largest shiplift in the world dedicated exclusively to yachts.<\/p>\n

The project, which involved a total investment of 50 million euros, was completed in August 2019 after 4 years of work. Thanks to the shiplift, customers have more possibilities than ever to work out of the water, which offers more flexibility, capacity and opportunities when it comes to maintaining and repairing yachts. Since its launch, the shiplift has already carried 22 superyachts with an average of over 75m LOA. It is a feat of world-class civil engineering in the heart of the port of Barcelona.<\/p>\n
