Bacton Gas Terminal.

Zoomup
Update. CCGTs need gas. The Bacton gas terminal is too close to the North Sea and may be susceptible to sea ingress as in 1953. The protection method is to use sand and not concrete. Will it provide long term protection? Only time will tell. I am dubious.

    I can't see sand being much good as it tends to get washed away every year the council have to fetch Weymouth beach back from the Isle of Wight. Of course I'm no civil engineer but to my mind sand poor cement good
