![]() ![]() One of the advantages of the vessel is its ability to work in small and shallow areas that are difficult for bigger dredgers to enter, as its draught is only 70cm. The dredger can pump sand up to 1,500 metres and dredge up to six metres deep. The entire dredger and all its equipment can be controlled from the control cabin. ![]() ![]() The vessel can be operated by only one person. The high dredging performance will speed up the dredging process to limit the time involved in maintenance. The dredger is equipped with a heavy-duty cutter head and underwater dredge pump for high performance and for pumping a high-density mixture of sand. Dredging is the only way to maintain artificial and natural shaped islands and beaches. In other places it is necessary to maintain the water depth for yachts and workboats to visit the area. In some areas the beach is flooded by new soft types of sand that makes it difficult for visitors to enjoy the clear waters of the Emirates. For this reason, it is necessary to perform periodical maintenance to keep the shape of the islands and maintain a pleasant beach. Due to current and erosion, the coast of the islands changes with the years. The dredger will be used for connecting some of the islands and deepening the sea entrance between the islands. The Netherlands’ Dredge Yard has delivered a multipurpose cutter suction dredger to a real estate developer in the United Arab Emirates for the reshaping and maintenance of existing islands. ![]()
