Dry Dock 5 (P-209) Construction Progress Update | September 2026
JOINT BASE PEARL HARBOR-HICKAM, Hawaii — September work on the P-209 Dry Dock 5 project advanced underwater concrete placement, waterfront construction and supporting facilities for Officer in Charge of Construction Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard (OICC PHNSY).
The team placed 1,860 cubic yards of concrete 40 to 60 feet underwater and installed more than 5,500 pounds of reinforcing steel nearly 80 feet underwater for a concrete slab in the pump well. The pump well will help remove water from the dry dock.
Along the west quay wall, crews drove steel piles more than 100 feet long, nearing completion of pile driving for the wall. Crews continue placing concrete for crane rail grade beams that will support future crane operations along the waterfront.
The fire water pumphouse and tank slabs are complete, supporting the dry dock’s future fire protection system. Prefabricated tilt-up construction of the sewer water lift station is standing, allowing roof work to begin ahead of schedule. Four of the project’s 10 tilt-up structures now have concrete walls and roofs in place.
The second temporary concrete batch plant is now certified to support upcoming construction of the dry dock walls.
The P-209 team’s progress directly contributes to future Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility and Fleet Foundry readiness.
