Over 300 industry guests gathered at the Port of Liverpool yesterday to toast the launch of Peel Ports’ landmark deep water container terminal Liverpool2. Sir Bobby Charlton and ‘King’ Kenny Dalglish pushed the button on the start of dredging and launched a dazzling display of fireworks over the sit
In dredging, the hydraulic transport of solids is one of the most important processes. Since the 50’s many researchers have tried to create a physical mathematical model in order to predict the head losses in slurry transport. These models are Durand, Condolios, Gibert, Worster. Zandi & Govatos, Juf
40South Energy will launch the first R115, which is a machine rated at 99kW, in Pisa on June 19th at a marina inside the “Darsena dei Navicelli”. After final assembly, most likely towards the end of July, the machine will be towed to the Punta Righini WEP (which is 40South’s test site) and stay ther

Wind turbine developers will soon have open access to a £50 million testing facility in the U.K. based on unique and leading-edge technology. The state-of-the-art facility has been specifically designed for full-scale testing of large nacelles. GE’s Power Conversion allows them to develop and build
In recent years, Chinese dredging companies have been actively taking pail in the domestic and foreign dredging market. They have built a large numbers of cutter suction dredgers, CSDs & trailer suction hopper dredgers, TSHDs with the Chinese dredging equipment makers developing and improving a lot.
The National Renewable Energy Centre, Narec, following its successful second round Regional Growth Fund (RGF), Wind Innovation Programme bid, is helping to sustain the UK’s leading position in the offshore wind sector by bringing together offshore market leaders with world-class technology providers
When dredging hard cohesive soils such as clayey silt, mild clay and clay, traditional teeth such as chisel teeth can only penetrate to a shallow depth of the soil layer and bear more cutting resistance, which directly affects the dredging efficiency of the trailing suction hopper dredger. In order
REMU Big Float is a unique amphibious excavator for the most challenging environment like swamp, shoreline, waste ponds and canals. Patented pontoon undercarriage that can be narrowed, enables easy transportation along public roads. REMU Big Float is instantly ready to use without any assembly at th
Van Oord’s powerful cutter suction dredger Athena was built by IHC Dredgers for dredging in hard soil. The strong vibrations on this type of dredger are notorious for their negative effects on the working and living conditions on board. Van Oord’s global dredging experience, IHC’s drive to build inn
Siemens Mechanical Drives has supplied pioneering tidal technology company Tidal Energy Limited (TEL) with gear units that will be part of the DeltaStream tidal stream generating device due to go on a 12-month trial in Ramsey Sound early in 2014. It will be Wales’ first commercial-scale turbine. The
