Port Atlantique La Rochelle; Chef de Baie 4 environmental monitoring during marine construction

The EUR 17.832698 million Océlian award at Chef de Baie 4 leads into a four-company delivery group. Port documents assign foundations to Océlian and Leduc, civil concrete to GTM, earthworks to Terélian and underwater-noise monitoring to Quiet Oceans.

Five named roles define the active workfront

The January 2026 port newsletter controls the latest physical checkpoint and handover target. Port committee records identify the joint venture and scope allocation, while TED controls only Océlian and the quay-contract value. The environmental page identifies Quiet Oceans without establishing final acceptance.

Scope boundaries sharpen the commercial picture

The package map turns a single-name EU award into an attributable construction chain. It also separates the quay contract from the wider platform, drainage, electrification, environmental and operator-handover tasks that determine whether the terminal can enter commercial service.

Evidence conclusion

Handover evidence is the next control

The owner confirms the contractor group, work split, 160-metre quay geometry, February 2025 start and an advanced quay position by mid-December. Completion remains open because the four-hectare platform, stormwater basin, environmental close-out, as-built acceptance and AMLP handover still lack a dated final record.

Outstanding evidence

  • Combi-wall and capping-beam completion
  • North and south mooring structures
  • Platform, drainage and polluted-soil close-out
  • Quiet Oceans monitoring and environmental acceptance
  • Berth electrification and marine furniture
  • AMLP handover and first sustained vessel service
