Ten years in the past, Indonesia’s Pelayaran Fortuna Nusantara Megajaya (PFNM) took supply of the two,500 cubic meter trailing suction hopper dredge (TSHD) Barito Equator. Built to a Damen design, it stays the most important TSHD ever constructed in Indonesia.
Now PFNM has purchased a Damen cutter suction dredge (CSD) that would be the largest stationary dredge owned by an Indonesian operator. The vessel, a CSD650, will function in a port growth undertaking on the island of Kalimantan. A swift supply has been made doable attributable to Damen’s inventory program.
Damen’s customary CSD650 will likely be fitted with a 700 kW cutter head which might work in water depths right down to 25 meters. The suction ladder incorporates a submerged dredge pump, which works in collection with the inboard dredge pump. 3,938 kW of put in energy ensures a formidable discharge distance and dredge manufacturing of seven,000 cubic meters per hour on common. The total size of the dredger is 70 meters, giving it a formidable swing width of 71 meters, and it has a weight of 660 tons.
Currently, the brand new CSD650 is being finalized and outfitted to specification within the Netherlands. The dredge will likely be transported from the Damen Dredging Equipment shipyard early subsequent 12 months.
“It is a real pleasure to be able to deliver the dredge at such a short notice,” mentioned Gysbert Boersma, Damen Shipyard gross sales supervisor. “Our fruitful discussions with the Indonesian owner have resulted in the delivery of a complete dredging package including spares and training. This will all ensure a fast deployment of the new dredge on site.”
