Krasnoye Sormovo Shipyard has delivered second of three trailing suction hopper dredgers, the Kronshlot, to the Federal State Unitary Enterprise “Rosmorport”.
Following the launching and delivery to the seaport of Saint Petersburg, the 1000 m³ TSHD is now ready to take on maintenance dredging projects for Rosmorport’s North-Western Basin Branch.
The TSHDs were designed by Damen Shipyards Gorinchem, the Netherlands, with the working design documentation provided by the Volga-Caspian Design Bureau (MNP Group), Russia.
The three TSHDs, all to be equipped with the necessary equipment suitable for the climatic conditions of the region, will have an outboard multifunctional submersible groundwater pump type “DOP 200”.
Delivery of the third vessel, the Kadosh, is expected by the end of this year.
