During the meeting, it was decided to create a working group that will take into account the conceptual developments of CDB ME "Almaz" USC in its work.
The following projects are under consideration:
- project 05740, self-propelled split hopper barge with a hold volume of 4000 m3
- bottom dumping self-propelled barge with a hold volume of 800 m3
- bottom dumping self-propelled barge with a hold volume of 1200 m3
About dredgers
A dredger is a technical fleet vessel designed for dredging and mining non-metallic construction materials. They differ in the method of transporting soil.
- Cutter suction dredger – soil transportation using a floating slurry pipeline
- Hopper dredger – soil is transported by special vessels (hopper barges)
- Self-propelled – the dredger takes the soil into the hold and transports it to the dumping site
- With hydromonitor pulp discharge (suitable for operation in river estuaries).
- Long-couloir – soil is moved along a tray to the shore
