Royal IHC has just released this very interesting behind-the-scenes video of the trailing suction hopper dredger (TSHD) 4,200m³ D11 – 21 DE JULIO.
The TSHD was partially built in the Netherlands, before being completed in Montevideo, Uruguay, for the Administración Nacional de Puertos (ANP).
The basic design and detailed engineering of the vessel was supplied by the IHC head office as well as the highly complex dredging parts and equipment.
The overall project management was executed by the company’s Latin American organisation located in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
