Extremely productive deep-water dredging at very high accuracy levels
Boskalis and Tideway required a new deep-water dredging method to excavate in challenging soil conditions at a water depth of 150 meters. To this purpose, the Grab Excavation System (GES) was developed.
In order to power this piece of heavy-duty subsea equipment, Seatools executed the grab with two subsea hydraulic power packs, each at a power rating of 200 kW. This level of power is used to drive the clamshell actuation system and the vehicle’s propulsion system.
