Cutter Dredger
No quay available? Let’s develop shore facilities
At two points, the Float-In operation of a cutter dredger was a challenge. To allow discharge of the dredger by SPMTs, the RollDock vessel had to submerge extra deep to load the dredger on top of stools. At the destination there was no quay available, hence RollDock’s client developed jetty and shore facilities to cater for the characteristics of the RollDock vessel. As unloading was planned to take place on the Suriname river, the currents of the fast-flowing river had to be taken into account. Safe mooring was ensured by using additional mooring points and a reinforced quay wall on shore.
