Kari Hege Continues Dredging at Port of Wells
The dredger “Kari Hege” will be engaged in dredging operations in the main channel North of number 4 buoy, between buoys four and two for week commencing 20th October 2014, reported today the Port of Wells.
Vessels entering or exiting the harbor should call the “Kari Hege” when working, on channel 12 or harbor staff if it’s not working. All prearranged dredging areas are constrained by the weather and wave heights therefore operations are subject to change on a daily basis.
The Port’s dredger “Kari Hege” operates from Monday to Friday. Its normal area of work is in the main channel between buoy number 12 and buoy number 1. It works during the low water period, starting three hours after high water until three hours prior to the next high water. The “Kari Hege” will manoeuvre into its dig position, or back to its mooring, approximately half an hour before or after this time.
Any larger vessels intending to pass the “Kari Hege” in the channel during digging operations or while it is manoeuvring should call the dredger up on Channel 12 to ascertain which is the safe side to pass.
All material removed from the channel during dredging operation is placed on the berm which is marked by the Port hand channel buoys.
