Wasa’s backhoe dredger Optimus together with the self-propelled barges “Sinann” and “Boann” is making good progress in Kalundborg Havn.
The Finnish marine offshore and inland water construction contractor started their first ever project in Denmark on March 1, 2018.
During the project, the dredger Optimus – equipped with a 360 ton Hitachi excavator – will remove over 900.000m³ of clay, silt and moraine from the Kalundborg Harbor area.
The dredged material is being loaded into the newly constructed barges Boann and Sinann and taken to an offshore dump at a distance of 8,5 nautical miles from the dredging area.
