Italdraghe Delivers Another BDC 200 Dredging Bucket

The Alternative Way to Dredge

Italdraghe recently delivered another BDC 200 dredging bucket to a Genoa-based company specialising in dredging works and beach replenishment.

The dredging bucket was installed on a CAT excavator that worked from a floating pontoon to dredge sand and silt from within the walls of the harbor of Chiavari in order to create a flat water bed at a depth of 4 metres. The dredged material was discharged via HDPE pipeline 350 metres away in a designated back fill site.

The BDC 200 is just one of a range of Italdraghe dredging buckets designed to fit virtually every type and size of excavator.

This new “mini-dredger” is both compact and efficient thanks to its powerful cutter head and dredging pump, identical to those on full-sized cutter suction dredger.
