It doesn’t get more Dutch than this. Pictured amongst a typical Netherlands polderscape, this is the very first of a brand-new series of Damen Cutter Suction Dredgers (CSD) 600 on its way to her owners in Indonesia.
Designed and built right here at Damen’s Nijkerk dredging yard, this new CSD takes experience gained in years of Dutch water management and combines it with cutting-edge innovation, the company said.
“ Completely redesigned, the CSD has been made with crew safety and operational excellence in mind ,” according to Damen.
The state-of-the-art new dredge pump design and the integrated spud carriage boost the efficiency of the stationary dredger.
“ A spacious raised operating cabin offers an excellent view of the fore deck and dredge project. Fingertip control and digital connectivity optimise monitoring and control ,” concluded Damen.
