This 20" or 500mm trailing suction installation with the double walled dredge pump is used to fill a 900m3 hopper in about 60 minutes. Sand is suctioned up from the bottom of the lake or river and loaded into the ship’s hopper. The ship is sailed to inland locations where it is unloaded by a crane and used for concrete production, road construction, or building projects.
