On behalf of Spaansen, a current container ship was converted into a hopper dredger.
The vessel sailed from Singapore to Harlingen, where Shipyard Bijlsma was commissioned to convert part of the vessel. The ship's hold had to be completely overhauled and new foundations were also placed on the deck to support conveyor belts. Due to the size of the ship, most of the work had to be carried out while the ship was in the water.
The vessel will be used to dredge gravel. This material will be used for concrete precast parts.
My name is Edwin Kooren born in Anna Paulowna and now living in the beautiful port of Harlingen. Besides the beautiful landscapes I like to photograph, I find sports and event photography super cool to do! Have fun viewing and/or ordering my photos.
