Harbour Design: Waves, IG & FIG

Actions to mitigate harbour motions range from site selection or harbour design (large scale), through asset positioning or water / vessel motions (medium scale) down to mooring or jetty designs (small scale). In general, getting larger scale mitigation right is the most cost-effective outcome, with other forms of mitigation useful to deal with assessment uncertainty, local issues, or post-construction refinement of harbour use.
