Thames Enterprise Park

Client: Morzine

LPA: Thurrock Council

The Morzine Joint Venture, comprising Shell, Greenergy and Vopak, acquired the former Coryton Petroplus Refinery site following its closure, and required a masterplan to address and drive forward the significant redevelopment potential of the site.

Preparation of a masterplan document was undertaken to establish acceptability of potential uses on the site, in discussion with the Council, and ultimately secured political endorsement.

Boyer co-ordinated the Environmental Assessment (EA) process securing inputs from a range of specialist consultants.

Boyer’s Design team prepared a series of illustrative layout options for the site, including two scenarios based around energy from waste and other environmental technology uses and a more traditional B8 warehousing and distribution model that were tested through the EA process before arriving at an illustrative hybrid solution in order to represent the potential of the site.
