Hopper dredge equipment
Hopper dredger equipment renewal
Dredging is about transporting a mixture of silt, sand and gravel. Together these abrasive materials have a huge impact on the dredging systems on board. All dredging components in contact with this dredged mixture are subject to constant wear and tear. As a result, they need replacement.
Practical exchange of dredging components
A hopper dredger, as any dredger, needs continuous maintenance. Dredging activities result in a gradual yet constant degradation of all dredging gear in contact with the abrasive dredged mixture. As a result, dredging components are replaced often. Damen has a complete range of dredging components available for component replacement.

Your partner in dredging
Dredging requires more than just shipping a dredge valve or overflow. It requires more gear such as dredge pumps and instrumentation to optimise the job. Moreover it requires crew training and project management to bring the works to a successful conclusion. Damen can assist you during the full lifecycle of your dredger.
Dredge package
For a retrofit or newbuild, first class dredging components will allow you to do your dredge job in the most efficient way. We supply a wide array of dredging systems ranging from single components to complete trailing suction pipe packages.
Getting started
As well as shipping the dredging components to your yard, we can also send over our Field Service Engineer to assist the crew with installation and start-up. This will shorten the installation time, and give an opportunity for crew training.
Lifecycle support
For spares, repairs, alterations or additions to your dredge systems, our Service team is available 24/7.
