The key to the success of any project anywhere in the world

What is dredging?

Dredging is the excavation of material from one level to another. It is used for a large variety of reasons, including to maintain channels or harbours, remove sedimentation and improve water quality, and create new landforms like islands. And dredgers are specialised pieces of equipment that create a vacuum to suck up and pump out the unwanted sediment and debris.

​

Dredging plays a vital role in keeping ports and waterways around the world open for commerce, transport and recreation. In this relation, berthing areas must ensure the safe approach of boats and ships. And since massive ships carry more and more goods, dredging plays a vital role in the nation's economy.

DREDGING

Dredging is excavation carried out underwater, in shallow waters or ocean waters. It keeps waterways and ports navigable, and assists coastal protection, land reclamation and coastal redevelopment, by gathering up bottom sediments and transporting it.

BEACH NOURISHMENT

This type of work is used to manage beaches by replacing lost sediment that will delay or prevent ongoing erosion. Beach nourishment projects are performed by dredging professionals to protect the shoreline from destructive climate factors. 

CREATION OF TERRITORIES

This is the process of creating new land from the sea for different purposes. The simplest method of land reclamation involves filling the area with large amounts of heavy rock or cement, then filling with clay and soil until the desired height is reached.

TIME CHARTER

Within a rental period we provide a vessel with a crew and equipment that can perform all the necessary work stated in the contract.

 COASTLINE DEFENSE

In order to protect certain areas, we need to work out coastal protection strategies. These are the interventions, structures, and measures put in place to protect coastal areas and their inhabitants against environmental catastrophic events.

BATHYMETRIC SURVEYS

Bathymetry is a crucial element to understanding the workings of the marine environment. It is important in the nautical world, as the charts are used to effectively navigate waters. These surveys use a variety of acoustic sounding tools to measure the depth of the seabed.
