ABPmer assesses breakwater performance in Malta

ABP Marine Environmental Research Ltd (ABPmer) has been awarded a contract to assess the performance of proposed breakwaters in the vicinity of Marsaxlokk fishing village on the island of Malta. The fishing village resides at the rear of Marsaxlokk Bay and although it affords some natural protection from the sea, some offshore swells can penetrate directly through the embayment to affect the fishing village.
