Commercial Maritime successfully completed the demolition and removal of a derelict jetty located within the environmentally sensitive waters of Rottnest Island.

The scope of works involved the complete removal of timber piles and jetty infrastructure. Timber pylons were carefully cut below the seabed using an underwater chainsaw, allowing piles to be safely separated without disturbing surrounding sediments. Each pile was then slung, lifted by crane, and transferred onto a punt boat utility vessel for removal from site. All remaining piles were extracted to finalise the demolition scope.

All recovered timber materials were recycled in coordination with the Rottnest Island Authority, aligning the project with sustainable waste management practices.
This project demonstrates Commercial Maritime’s capability to deliver complex marine demolition works in environmentally sensitive locations, combining precise underwater operations, effective marine logistics, and responsible environmental management.
