a drilling platform was towed into the small Esentepe harbour today at 8.30 am it is now moored there, anyone know if work is due to start here.

Woody,

To say that the work is long overdue would be a big understatement,but the general conscencious is very soon,

Thought the "New Marina" was going to be further up the coast.

Unless they've changed the location, Port Cyprium Marina is going to be near Kucuk Erenkoy in that big bay directly opposite one of the Carrington villa developments up on the cliff. The clue is in the sign and name for the Carrington site called.... Marina View

No unfortunately you are wrong millzer

the location is about 200yds to the right of the moulos inn heading away from esentepe.

Drive further down from the carrington site and you will come to the port cyprium sign indicating where its supposed to be located

not long after you pass sunset bay you will see 2 unfinished villas on the right with arches at the front and there are 2 finished villas on the left in the same style. These are part of the marina village and that is the bay where its "supposed" to be located

Message 6, i stand corrected, but am now totally confused and haven't a clue where it's going to be!! So is it even further along past 'marina view' carrington site towards Tatlisu direction? Or back nearer Esentepe direction?

It is definitely going to be where all the boats will be moored. You will not miss it coming from either direction.

There you go millzer.

Are you sure the rig isn't for drilling a water well under the sea bed?

it's in order to give the local TC sub aqua club their own hole to look into, so they can shrug their shoulders and look on with exclamation on the faces (through their masks).... why should it be just TC builders that have all the fun??

As I understand it the new marina is at or very near Kucuk Erenkoy and is the bay in the distance overlooked by The Eagles Nest, hence the new road construction, kerbs, tarmac etc in that area which I assume is for construction traffic. I think there is a google earth picture on one of the websites which would pin point it exactly - http://www.portcypriummarina.com/Port_Cyprium_Marina.asp .



There is an existing very small "marina" at Esentepe which I believe is used mostly by local fishing boats .



But of course I stand to be corrected.

Chegs,



It probably will keep filling up so they'll have to pump it out every morning...

Hatty is about right.

The co ordinates on the website mentioned point directly to the bay west of the Eagles Nest and East of the Moulos.

So, that is where the boat park will be.

Esentepe harbor is home to the new oil and gas division of TRNGAS.

Test holes are being drilled in order to support the platform that will take the "findings" to the refinery on shore.

Hi chegwin & woody,



I hope this is not true about Esentepe harbour, I look out of my lounge window on to this. I was only out there 3 weeks ago and no rigs were there then. Are they building the oil refinery at the actual harbour?

Why have I not seen anything about this in Cyprus Today?

It is not a wind up.

The equipment is there now and dredging is underway. Honest.

Ask someone else who is there now to take a peek. Tim wouldn’t tell porkies.

Hi Tim,



Thanks for that information, I can put away my valium and come down from the ceiling. Have a nice day all.

Simon, I am going to buy you one of those big wooden spoons, next time I am out.
