Van Oord christened its new Water Injection Dredger (WID) Thor yesterday.

According to the company’s official announcement, guests gathered at the quay of Van Oord’s head office in Rotterdam to celebrate this festive occasion.

“Thor marks an exciting new step in WID development with low emissions and high maneuverability,” said Van Oord.
