The Dampier Salt facility allows ships to berth, moor or warp alongside, to load salt products via a conveyor belt attached to the fixed cantilever shiploader.
Vessels may berth or moor either side of the facility, and warp along dolphins using ship winches on fore and aft lines and central springs that are attached to the number 4 dolphin.
Woodside Energy Limited's Withnell Bay Terminal is on the eastern side of Mermaid Sound. The terminal receives natural gas via subsea pipelines from fields approximately 130km offshore. The gas is piped to southern Western Australia for industrial and domestic use.
Liquefied natural gas is exported to Japan, and liquefied petroleum gas and condensate are sold to the domestic and overseas markets.
Further information is available in Woodside Energy Limited’s terminal handbooks.
The Pluto Jetty Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) terminal lies in position latitude: 20 36 south, longitude: 116 45 east.
The terminal receives natural gas via a subsea trunkline from fields approximately 180km offshore. Most of the gas is processed into LNG and condensate for export.
The jetty is a single berth loading facility for LNG and condensate tankers, starboard side alongside. The loading platform is equipped with four 16" LNG loading/vapour return arms and two 16" condensate arms.
A gangway to accommodate all tankers is located on the jetty loading platform, hydraulically operated in luffing, slewing and shuttling modes, is designed to rest on the ship’s dedicated strengthened rail and sits on the deck of condensate tankers.
Four breasting dolphins with single cylindrical cell rubber fenders and panels extending from LAT +4.0m to LAT +8.67m comprise the berth face. Each breasting dolphin is equipped with double release hooks and capstans for spring lines. The maximum berthing speed is 0.15m/s.
There are aft facing hooks on one of the two forward breasting dolphins for mooring of condensate vessels. There are no forward facing hooks on the aft breasting dolphins.
Three mooring dolphins, each end of the berth, are equipped with triple and quadruple release hooks and capstans for breast lines. All hooks are linked to the Terminal Mooring Load and Environmental Monitoring System and have a safe working load of 125t.

Located on the eastern side of Mermaid Sound, Woodside Energy Limited's Withnell Bay LNG jetty receives natural gas via subsea pipelines from fields approximately 130km offshore. The gas is transported via pipeline to southern Western Australia for industrial and domestic use.
The jetty is a single berth loading facility for LNG tankers. A gangway to accommodate tankers is located on the loading platform and maneuvered on board by a berthing crane. The loading platform is equipped with four 16" loading (vapour) return arms.
Six breasting dolphins with double Yokohama fenders and panels extending from LAT 0.5m to LAT +7.1m comprise the berth face. Dolphins are equipped with a double release hook and capstan for spring line moorings.
Located on the eastern side of Mermaid Sound, Woodside Energy Limited's Withnell Bay Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) and condensate Jetty receives natural gas via subsea pipelines from fields approximately 130km offshore.
The jetty comprises a hydraulic telescopic gangway and berth face with four breasting dolphins with panels extending from +1.5m LAT to +6.9m LAT. Each panel is 5.4m high.
Outboard panels one and four are 4m wide and feature double release hook assemblies. Inboard panels two and three are 2.3m wide and feature triple release hook assemblies. Mooring dolphins at the end of each berth have a triple release hook assembly.
Toll Dampier supply base offers three major services comprising of:
Further information is available in Toll’s handbook.
Dampier Fuel Berth holds a specific exemption to the hazardous zone provisions of the International Oil Tanker and Terminal Safety Guide on the basis that it is only permitted to discharge diesel.
Before berthing, all empty cargo tanks and slop tanks must be purged with inert gas to achieve a hydrocarbon content of less than two percent by volume.
The East Intercourse Island ore jetty consists of a tubular steel pipe structure carrying a deck and rail transverse of a slewing block shiploader.
Nine multi-spring dolphins fitted with Yokohama air block fenders are situated clear of the ore jetty structure for starboard side mooring.
Departure drafts are dependent on tidal conditions and adequate under keel clearance.
The lay-by berth can be considered a normal berth without a jetty structure that allows ships to berth at East Intercourse Island without having to wait for a tidal vessel to sail.
Vessels berth port side to and moor to nine rigid dolphins fitted with Fentek cone fenders separate from the wharf structure at Parker Point 2 and 4.
Vessels berth starboard side to, to eight rigid dolphins fitted with Fentek cone fenders separate from the wharf structure at Parker Point 3 and 5.
